install_firmware & snapshot #194

Open sygilber opened 4 years ago

sygilber commented 4 years ago

Using the role install_firmware:

It just structed me that it is totally useless (?) to generate a configuration snapshot prior applying a firmware. Once a firmware is applied, all snapshots are gone on the new active partition.

If you run the install_firmware a second time (for same firmware level), a snapshot is again generated but the firmware not re-applied of course. So this new snapshot can lead one into thinking that the configuration snapshot contains the configuration that reflects the state of the configuration prior the new firmware.

So I just want to suggest we remove this automatic configuration snapshot step before taking a snapshot.

Your comments welcomed.
