+Gather Facts
+============
+
+This role simply calls the Ansible `setup` module to gather facts about the host.
+
+When building a new Proxmox VM, gathering facts at the start of the playbook
+would fail because the VM does not yet exist. The [common](../common/) role
+first builds the VM, then invokes this role once the host is reachable.
