AIX 7200-05-04
Ansible 2.9.15
In a playbook I use the Ansible delegate_to directive as I want to use ibm.power_aix.mount on a client LPAR.
When this executes I get an error saying that /usr/bin/python3 is not found.
Python3 is installed in /opt/freeware/bin as you'd expect.
I have ansible_python_interpreter": "/opt/freeware/bin/python3 in the inventory file for all of the AIX LPARs.
If I amend the playbook to start a new play and use the client inventory name for the hosts variable rather than using the delegete_to, it works.
This works:
- name: Mount the lpp_source as read-only on the target system
hosts: test
collections:
- ibm.power_aix
become: True
gather_facts: False
tasks:
- name: Mount the lpp_source on the LPAR
ibm.power_aix.mount:
state: mount
mount_dir: /export/nim/lpp_source/7200-05-04-2220-lpp_source
mount_over_dir: /mnt
node: xxx-yyy-nfssvr
read_only: true
This does not work:
- name: Mount the lpp_source on the LPAR
ibm.power_aix.mount:
state: mount
mount_dir: /export/nim/lpp_source/7200-05-04-2220-lpp_source
mount_over_dir: /mnt
node: xxx-yyy-nfssvr
read_only: true
delegate_to: "{{ target }}
I receive:
fatal: [nfssvr -> xxx-yyy-test]: FAILED! => {"changed": false, "module_stderr": "/bin/sh: /usr/bin/python3: not found.\n"Any suggestions why the delegate_to doesn't use the ansible_python_interpreter value but starting anew play does?
Thanks
