Ansible does not need to log in as root. Most environments log in as a user account that has full sudo privileges.
I would argue that installing sudo is less of a risk than allowing direct root login via ssh, but I have never administered an AIX environment. You could reach out to the AIX working group <https://github.com/ansible/community/wiki/AIX> and see if they are able to offer any guidance. --- Sam -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ansible Project" group.
