Re: [ansible-project] Expect still prompting to continue

['Rowe, Walter P. (Fed)' via Ansible Project]

Also note they specifically tell the shell module that expect is the 
executable. See blue bold text below.

- name: Run expect to wait for a successful PXE boot via out-of-band CIMC
  ansible.builtin.shell: |
    set timeout 300
    spawn ssh admin@{{ cimc_host }}

    expect "password:"
    send "{{ cimc_password }}\n"

    expect "\n{{ cimc_name }}"
    send "connect host\n"

    expect "pxeboot.n12"
    send "\n"

    exit 0
  args:
    executable: /usr/bin/expect
  delegate_to: localhost

Here is an example of using expect from the ansible-doc shell output.

In your case you might need to change it to look like this:

    - name: Install
      shell: |
        set timeout -1
        log_file /tmp/nbexpect.log
        spawn /usr/openv/netbackup/bin/goodies/nbcomponentupdate -product 
NetBackup -component jre -path /tmp/jdk1.8.0_341
        expect "Do you wish to continue"
        sleep 1
        send "y\n"

I have not done this myself. This is just a guess based on the ansible-doc page 
for the shell module.

Do you want to continue (Y[es]/N[o]):

Some guidance on where am going wrong.
