AIX Open Source

Hi All,
Executed the below playbook and got the error as follows,

---

- name: Prep AIX for Ansible 
  hosts: all
  vars: 
    pkgtype: yum 
  collections:
    - ibm.power_aix
  roles:
    - power_aix_bootstrap​

fatal: [xx.xx.xxx.xxx]: FAILED! => {"changed": false, "msg": "End playbook for xx.xx.xxx.xxx. Bootstrap yum for AIX version 73 is not supported."}

Any thoughts ?

Hi Vijay,

YUM is not supported on AIX 7.3 and you need to use DNF as a package manager.
Can you change from YUM to DNF and see if it works.
