Hi guys, I kinda feel ashamed asking this kind of questions but I'm currently still learning Ansible, only started a week ago and I have to complete this as a part of a personal project that I will present.
I wrote a simple playbook for changing passwords on linux systems, will have to add module for windows later but now the issue is with AIX systems. User module isn't working for AIX, I tried things from internet but no success so I wrote a script that changes the password on AIX with 2 arguments, user and password---> as a result the password is changed for that user. What I have to do in the playbook is to run copy and run this script on the remote server with the password and user that I give give using -e when the remote system is AIX: - name: User configuration remote_user: root hosts: "{{ hosts }}" tasks: - name: Password change Linux user: name: root state: present update_password: always password: "{{ admin_password | password_hash('sha512') }}" shell: /bin/bash - name: Copy pw change script AIX copy: src: /root/docker/centos7-ansible/chpas.sh dest: /tmp/chpas.sh mode: 0777 register: script_copy when: ansible_distribution == 'AIX' - name: Execute pw change AIX script command: /tmp/chpas.sh root "{{ admin_password }}" when: (ansible_distribution == 'AIX') and (script_copy.rc == 1) register: script_execute - name: Clear files file: path: '/tmp/chpas.sh' state: absent when: (ansible_distribution == 'AIX') and (script_execute.rc== 1) the error is : TASK [Gathering Facts] *************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************** ok: [ansible_aix] TASK [Password change Linux] ********************************************************************************************************************************************************************************* changed: [ansible_aix] => {"append": false, "changed": true, "comment": "", "group": 0, "home": "/root", "move_home": false, "name": "root", "password": "NOT_LOGGING_PASSWORD", "shell": "/bin/bash", "state": "present", "uid": 0} TASK [Copy pw change script AIX] ***************************************************************************************************************************************************************************** ok: [ansible_aix] => {"changed": false, "checksum": "d434aee957d8a46a41f92f76936ebcf53848dc1b", "dest": "/tmp/chpas.sh", "gid": 0, "group": "system", "mode": "0777", "owner": "root", "path": "/tmp/chpas.sh", "size": 458, "state": "file", "uid": 0} TASK [Execute pw change AIX script] ************************************************************************************************************************************************************************** fatal: [ansible_aix]: FAILED! => {"msg": "The conditional check '(ansible_distribution == 'AIX') and (script_copy.rc == 1)' failed.
