Hi,

Is there a plan to support pmrun options in the become\_method for Ansible?

Thanks

No current plans, I did not know about pmrun until right now.

We do try to cover as many of these systems as rational, it is hard with some of these proprietary systems as it requires a license to test and the setups can be wildly different and incompatible with each other when it comes to command formatting.

That said, we are open to taking pull requests to add this as a supported method.

I’ve made a PR to support pmrun. Right now it is limited to pmrun invocation w/o password prompt.
