I'm trying to run the command show redundant summary on a cisco Wlan controller (Catalyst 6509-E).
When I use this aireos_command from ansible:
- name: show redundancy summary
aireos_command:
commands: show redundancy summary
register: wlan_output
vars:
ansible_connection: local
I get following error (ignore deprecation warning):
{
"msg": "Unable to decode JSON from response to exec_command({\"command\": \"show redundancy summary\", \"prompt\": null, \"answer\": null}). Received 'None'.",
"rc": 1,

"version": "2.12"
}
],

Why do i get null as an answer?
Perhaps installing the Python package ansible-pylibssh will help; it seems like the ansible.module_util.connection.Connection class isn't happy with Paramiko and the aireos_command module.

I am installing SNMP service on Windows 10 through ansible. As per ansible output, it is getting installed but not appearing in the services.msc.
Playbook task

The name of the feature is actually a little different. It should contain the ~ character instead of -.
Change the install command to this:
Add-WindowsCapability -Online -Name "SNMP.Client~~~~0.0.1.0"
Unfortunately, the output from the install seems to be the same whether or not the correct name was used. If you need to confirm it was installed, I suggest checking the state afterward to verify it's "Installed."
PS C:\> Get-WindowsCapability -Online -Name "SNMP.Client~~~~0.0.1.0" | Select State

Per Oracle VM VirtualBox 6.1 Silent Install (How-To Guide), I should be able to install VirtualBox silently like this
C:\temp> VirtualBox-6.1.28-147628-Win.exe --silent --ignore-reboot
and if I run the above command in a Windows command prompt, it succeeds and installs VirtualBox.
Now I do this in Ansible
- name: "Install {{ artifact_filename }}"
win_package:
path: "C:\\temp\\VirtualBox-6.1.28-147628-Win.exe"
arguments: "--silent --ignore-reboot"
state: present
and I get this when I run the playbook with the task.

What am I missing? TIA.
I RTFM'd the win_package documentation. It says regarding the arguments option
arguments This is only used for the msi, msp, and registry providers.
So I do this instead
- name: "Install VirtualBox"
win_command: "C:\\temp\\VirtualBox-6.1.28-147628-Win.exe --silent --ignore-reboot"
If anyone has a better answer I'm all eyes.
I have an output of a playbook and I want to debug a message based on a condition of the output. I need the key and value pairs of the item to match a when statement then I will print out the actual data.

When I put the below statement it returns with item is not defined error.
- debug:
msg: "{{item[1].item}} is pingable from {{ansible_host}} with {{item[1].results.success.packet_loss}} out of 5 packets"
when: "item[0].key == 'packet_loss'"
with_sublements:
- "{{loop_iterate.results.results.success}}"
- "{{loop_iterate.results}}"
so is there a way of combining with_dict with with_items ? I want to use
- "{{loop_iterate.results.results.success}}" as with_dict iteration while using - "{{loop_iterate.results}}" as with_items

Install proxmoxer on proxmox machine.
Or otherwise explain, what is your expectation for trying to run it without the library. You might be running it on a different target than you intended.
Here is what I have:
- name: Create directories that will be used as persistent volumes
become: yes
become_method: sudo
file:

serole: _default
setype: svirt_sandbox_file_t
with_items:
- cassandra
- services
The two directories are correctly created, group a rights are ok. But the SE Linux context is wrong.
$ ll -dZ /tmp/pv-cassandra
drwxrwxr-x. 2 jkremser root unconfined_u:object_r:user_tmp_t:s0 40 Mar 9 15:19 /tmp/pv-cassandra

What am I doing wrong? My OS is Fedora 25.
If I use the copy module, instead of the file, that has almost the same parameters, it throws this error:
Aborting, target uses selinux but python bindings (libselinux-python) aren't installed
After installing the libselinux-python package, it works! So it looks like the file module silently swallows the error and does what it can do :( I can't depend on the fact that user has the libselinux-python package installed.
I'll probably call the chcon myself as a shell command or add the package as a prerequisite:
- name: Install the libselinux-python package
package:
name: libselinux-python
state: present
