ansible/playbooks/check-for-nonvirt-updates.yml

#
# simple playbook to check all hosts and see how many updates they have pending.
# It could be a lot faster if we didn't gather facts, but we need that for yum vs dnf checking
#
# If you want a pretty sorted list, you need to post process the output here with something
# like:
#
# time ansible-playbook check-for-updates.yml | grep msg\": | awk -F: '{print $2}' | sort
#
