So I’ve been working for a company called Avi Networks for a while now. Working on customer deployments, internal devops automation, customer migrations, and tons of other projects including getting Avi to have the largest module library available out of any load balancer on the market. Well, today were going to show how to use Avi’s Ansible modules to patch your Avi Controller. It’s easy, here’s how.

This will also wait for the controller to come back up 🙂
