Hello,

I have decided that I perform a clean install with latest IBM Toolbox packages etc....

So, I got first problem in installation where I dont know why instead of yum ansible expect svr4pkg on AIX?

TASK [update all packages] *****************************************************
fatal: [localhost]: FAILED! => {"ansible_facts": {"pkg_mgr": "svr4pkg"}, "changed": false, "msg": "value of state must be one of: present, absent, got: latest"}

Can you reproduce this bug? Ay hint how to fix it for the future?

Regards,

B.

Hi,

I have checked python script which is gathering facts on the beginning, he is detecting svr4pkg because its last pkg manager he found, yum is first..

PKG_MGRS = [{'path': '/usr/bin/yum', 'name': 'yum'},
            {'path': '/usr/bin/dnf', 'name': 'dnf'},
            {'path': '/usr/bin/apt-get', 'name': 'apt'},
            {'path': '/usr/bin/zypper', 'name': 'zypper'},
            {'path': '/usr/sbin/urpmi', 'name': 'urpmi'},
            {'path': '/usr/bin/pacman', 'name': 'pacman'},
            {'path': '/bin/opkg', 'name': 'opkg'},
            {'path': '/usr/pkg/bin/pkgin', 'name': 'pkgin'},
            {'path': '/opt/local/bin/pkgin', 'name': 'pkgin'},
            {'path': '/opt/tools/bin/pkgin', 'name': 'pkgin'},
            {'path': '/opt/local/bin/port', 'name': 'macports'},
            {'path': '/usr/local/bin/brew', 'name': 'homebrew'},
            {'path': '/sbin/apk', 'name': 'apk'},
            {'path': '/usr/sbin/pkg', 'name': 'pkgng'},
            {'path': '/usr/sbin/swlist', 'name': 'swdepot'},
            {'path': '/usr/bin/emerge', 'name': 'portage'},
            {'path': '/usr/sbin/pkgadd', 'name': 'svr4pkg'}, <<<< /usr/sbin/pkgadd  exist so he choose svr4pkg instead of yum
            {'path': '/usr/bin/pkg', 'name': 'pkg5'},
            {'path': '/usr/bin/xbps-install', 'name': 'xbps'},
            {'path': '/usr/local/sbin/pkg', 'name': 'pkgng'},
            {'path': '/usr/bin/swupd', 'name': 'swupd'},
            {'path': '/usr/sbin/sorcery', 'name': 'sorcery'},
            {'path': '/usr/bin/rpm-ostree', 'name': 'atomic_container'},
            {'path': '/usr/bin/installp', 'name': 'installp'},
            ]

....

Workaroud is:

- remove line " {'path': '/usr/sbin/pkgadd', 'name': 'svr4pkg'}" from  pkg_mgr.py (tested, its installing now...)

- or probably editing playbook and add: "use_backend: yum" should also help but I dont want to do it for every playbook in the future

Can you maybe provide me better solution which dont involve editing config files? (I am not familiar with ansible so far....)

Regards,

B.

There is RED section which probably mean that there is problem with posgresql db?
