Ansible requires setting up a passwordless Secure Shell (SSH) access between the controller node and all the managed nodes. With a large environment of AIX systems, this can be a tedious task. Instead of setting up this passwordless SSH, we can use NIMSH for communication between the clients and run playbooks on NIM clients. NIMSH is the communication channel that is used by a NIM server to communicate with NIM clients.
