CentOS 7 is, FWIW, in our QA matrix and we haven't seen problems here.

It seems like John is suggesting above that host key checking disabling
fixes something for you, but I'm also a bit unclear, as the system will
prompt you (ansible will ask you questions) when it is turned on.

It seems like you may have not been seeing the prompts?

Can you clarify a bit perhaps?

Thanks!
