Probablyi need to describe my problem better.
I need to create a role which performs the following steps:
1. Download prerequisites packages like telnet schroot and wget
2. create the appropriate folder if does not exists
3. download a couple of .rpm packages within this folder
4. install these .rpm packages using yum
5. start the service
6. Perform some configuration
Now, i have completed all the steps till step 5, only step 6 is missing.
Step 6 is regarding an IBM command line interface configuration.
When i perform the manual configuration after all it has been installed,
and the service up, i need to access to the CLI using the following
command:
*$ telnet 0 2200*
then a login prompt is shown:
login: username
password: password
here i need to set the default username and password. After that i get the
following message:
****************************************************************
ATTENTION: Use care when making your selections for operational
modes. If you select an incorrect mode for your environment,
the only way to change an operational mode is to reinitialize
the appliance.
Press any key to continue.
****************************************************************
here i should press enter. Then a new password will be required so i need
to write the new password the first time and repeat it another time.
i tried with the previous code but i get always the same error. Probably
i'm not doing the right things in my playbook, do you have any suggestion?
