Hi all,

i've been having this Problem since a few weeks already and could not seem 
to find the cause to the problem.

Setup:
OS: NAME="Red Hat Enterprise Linux Server" ; VERSION="7.9 (Maipo)"
Ansible Version: ansible 2.9.15

Problem: 

fatal: [my_server]: UNREACHABLE! => {"changed": false, "msg": "Failed to 
create temporary directory.In some cases, you may have been able to 
authenticate and did not have permissions on the target directory. Consider 
changing the remote tmp path in ansible.cfg to a path rooted in \"/tmp\", 
for more error information use -vvv. Failed command was: ( umask 77 && 
mkdir -p \"` echo /var/tmp `\"&& mkdir \"` echo 
/var/tmp/ansible-tmp-1649263609.0-35845-182209786710290 `\" && echo 
ansible-tmp-1649263609.0-35845-182209786710290=\"` echo 
/var/tmp/ansible-tmp-1649263609.0-35845-182209786710290 `\" ), exited with 
result 1", "unreachable": true}
- Jobs are executed from a scheduling System which access the ansible 
server to execute the playbook from there.
- The Job does ends successfully, but also sometimes with the above fatal 
message.
- A "rerun" of the failed job will not produce the same error.
- This Error is not limited to the ansible module and is quite difficult to 
reproduce. It occurs randomly on any server using any ansible module.

I've already tried these ansible.cfg settings. Unfortunately, it did not 
help.
...
remote_tmp = /tmp/.ansible-${USER}/tmp
system_tmpdirs = /tmp
pipelining = True

[ssh_connection]
retries=10

Has anyone encounter similar problem such as this or an idea how to resolve 
this?

Best Regards,
JB
