Hi,
I am writing a module to a storage nas that allows me to connect to it
using ssh. However, it does not provide a standard shell. So I cannot
connect to it using command and shell modules. It works with raw assuming
I set gather facts = to no.
The reason is that Ansible seems to always do the initial connection with
'/bin/sh -c '"'"'echo ~ && sleep 0'"'"'' to check if it can connect and
fails if that command fails. As there is no home directory or /bin/sh the
connection fails.
Here is the error:
<192.168.xx.xx> SSH: EXEC ssh -C -o ControlMaster=auto -o
ControlPersist=60s -o KbdInteractiveAuthentication=no -o
PreferredAuthentications=gssapi-with-mic,gssapi-keyex,hostbased,publickey
-o PasswordAuthentication=no -o ConnectTimeout=10 -o
ControlPath=/home/somename/.ansible/cp/xxxx 192.168.xx.xxx *'/bin/sh -c
'"'"'echo ~ && sleep 0'"'"'*'
<192.168.xx.xx> (255, '', 'Permission denied
(publickey,gssapi-keyex,gssapi-with-mic,password,keyboard-interactive).\r\n')
fatal: [somenas]: UNREACHABLE! => {
"changed": false,
"msg": "Failed to connect to the host via ssh: Permission denied
(publickey,gssapi-keyex,gssapi-with-mic,password,keyboard-interactive).\r\n",
"unreachable": true
}
Using raw avoids the checks and is a solution. However, I would Like to
write a module to manage the storage in a better way. However, it seems
like the connection is always happening using the above connection. I have
tried both by using the standard way of using AnsibleModule and to write my
own connection using paramiko SSHClient. But even when just calling this
simple module Ansible is still first trying to do the ssh connection first
before the connection from my module is invoked.
So my question is can I avoid the initial connection or change the specific
check *'/bin/sh -c '"'"'echo ~ && sleep 0'"'"'*' to something that works on
this storage?
Thanks,
Mikael
