I believe Brian has the right idea. Your build of python likely does
not have the hash modules compiled into it. Having a hash available
in order to checksum files is needed by many basic ansible functions
so we can't get rid of it altogether but there are some options:
* Install python from freebsd's prebuilt collection using pkg install
python -- On my freebsd10 box, this version does have hashing built
in.
* Rebuild python on these boxes with hashing.enabled
* If these are truly special purpose, embedded boxes, you could use
the ansible modules "raw" and "script". These alllow you to execute
commands on the remote machine and pass shell scripts you've written
yourself to the remote machine and then execute them. These modules
sometimes work for people managing, for instance, routers, network
appliances, routers, and other special purpose devices without python
installed at all. This option doesn't allow you to use the full power
of ansible but may work if you can't get a version of python that has
hashing onto those boxes.
If using the last option with playbooks, note that you'll have to turn
off fact gathering for boxes which do not have a hashing function.
For instance:
---
- hosts: embedded1
gather_facts: False
- tasks:
- raw: hostname
-toshio
