Red Hat Ansible usage around IBMi modernisation

  • 1.  Red Hat Ansible usage around IBMi modernisation

    Posted 10/17/25 09:58 AM

    Hi All,

     

    I've been watching the number of downloads for the IBM i collection, while it is not the same number as AIX I have noticed it increasing rapidly. Therefore, as part of your modernisation strategy, what I'm curious about it where do you consider yourself on this journey:

     

    1 - kicking the tires with ansible?

    2 - using ansible to reuse existing processes (like job schedules)

    3 - re writing your new and/or existing processes to be under the ansible control

    4  - a combination of old and new

    5 - integrating ansible with IBM i as part your non IBM i ansible collaboration

    6 - not even considered it

    7 - other (it would be appreciated if you could expand)

     

    I find that using Red Hat AAP (Ansible Automation Platform) enables the modernisation strategy to take you to the next level and collaborate across the business to achieve closer integration between teams.

     

    Many thanks in advance for your feedback and sharing ideas
