+### NetBackup API Code Samples for Ansible
+
+This directory contains code samples to invoke NetBackup REST APIs using ansible.
+
+#### Disclaimer
+
+These scripts are only meant to be used as a reference. If you intend to use them in production, use it at your own risk.
+
+#### Pre-requisites:
+
+- NetBackup 8.1.1 or higher
+- ansible 2.x
+
+
+#### Executing the snippets in ansible
+
+These are tasks meant to be part of a larger playbook.   I use them with the following syntax
+
+tasks:
+-name: name of tasks
+  include_task: tasklocation/taskname
+
+
+Vars for ansible are defined in a inventory file for use in plays
+vars created during plays are used in future ones like login.yml.
