Hi @akashombase7, I tested the following with success with ansible-core version 2.15 and 2.17 so I think there is an issue in your environment: $ ansible-playbook -i hosts save.yml

Hello Patrick,
I hope you are doing well.
I’m currently facing an issue and would appreciate your help. I am using
Ansible version 2.17, and I have the required F5 collection installed. My
playbook is configured with connection: local and validate_certs: no.
However, when I try to access the following URL using cURL:
curl -k https://hostnameOfF5device/mgmt/tm/sys/host
It returns an "Unauthorized" access error, which might be the cause of the
issue.
Could you help me identify the exact problem and suggest a solution?
Note: Using the same user, I am able to SSH and execute some commands like show sys version. However, it seems I don't have access via the API, so this might be the issue.
Thank you in advance.
Regards,
Akash Ombase

Hi @akashombase7, First are you sending credentials via option "-u" on curl command? Also /host in the end doesn't seem available. |
|
Hello @pgouband thank for you reply. I have an idea why it's saying 'bash unexpected argument.' It seems some devices doesn't API connections from Ansible, and there is no bash access on some devices. However, could you check this new issue: why is device1 failing on the task 'run show version on remote devices,' while device2 is working fine on that task? Device1: Sys::Version Device2: Sys::Version task: Output: TASK [run show version on remote devices] ************************************************************************************ |
|
Hi @akashombase7, I suggest you try to reach API endpoint of each device using curl or Postman: Ansible module is working with one device so the issue is probably in your environment. |
|
hello @pgouband When running curl on Device1, we received an 'Authorization Failed' error. However, the device is still getting a response from the API. Could above module failure issue be due to access permissions or anything else? fyi both device has admin role to my service account. |
|
Hi @akashombase7, If curl command output is Authorization failed that means an error in credentials but it's not an ansible issue so open a ticket via https://my.f5.com/manage/s/ |
