Hi,
Thanks for the detail.
So, just to clarify some things:
- ansible-playbook will still be run on a standard Linux machine, that's
the controller
- Ansible doesn't have an agent. It communicates over ssh, nothing to
install on the remote-node
- We are talking about supporting OpenVMS/Itanium as a *remote-node*
Assuming you have an inventory file that defines openvms-01
1) If we start with the simplest task:
ansible openvms-01 -m ping
This ensure we have connectivity
2) Then look at
ansible openvms-01 -m setup -a 'gather_subset=!min'
Which should return something like
SUCCESS => {
"ansible_facts": {
"gather_subset": [
"!min"
],
"module_setup": true
},
"changed": false
You can play around with the various gather_subset as defined on
https://docs.ansible.com/ansible/latest/modules/setup_module.html
3) Then
ansible openvms-01 -m setup -a 'gather_subset=min'
How do those commands seem?
If any fail add -vv and rerun
This should give us an indication of what works "out of the box".
You can see the code for the existing for facts in
https://github.com/ansible/ansible/tree/devel/lib/ansible/module_utils/facts
Kind regards,
gundalow
