Hello,

I'd like to be able to create servers at Rackspace which are free from any 
packages other than the ones installed by default as part of a Debian 
installation. In response to the support ticket I raised, I was pointed to 
this article in Rackspace's 
documentation: 
http://www.rackspace.com/knowledge_center/article/post-build-options-for-servers.

The section "Build options for configuration management software (Chef, 
Puppet, Ansible, Salt)" in that article suggests to achieve the above, I 
need to provide additional information via the build_config parameter:

--meta build_config=core


I assumed that using the rax module, I could use the extra_create_args 
attribute to supply this information. I've tested that, and I haven't been 
able to get it working. I've copied my code below, I'd like to know whether 
I'm not using the module correctly, or if I've discovered a problem in the 
implementation (the docs suggest extra_create_args has only recently been 
added):

---
 - name: Create base image
   hosts: localhost
   tasks:
     - name: 1 GB General Purpose v1
       local_action:
         module: rax
         credentials: ~/.rackspace_cloud_credentials
         region: "LON"
         name: "base-image"
         files:
           /root/.ssh/authorized_keys: "./id-rsa.pub"
         flavor: general1-1
         image: 04399432-ac55-4e0b-bcd1-6c90fa568a0f
         extra_create_args:
           build_config: "core,monitoring"

Thanks, Dan.
