Ansible to automate Docker Datacenter backup

Hi

Anyone used Ansible to automate tasks in Docker DataCenter (EE)? It looks like it is using a Linux variant, Moby Linux. I am able to ssh into it to perform the backup operation. When I tried to do ansible ddc-ucp -m ping, I get the following error: LM17-T00242:sensu dereklai$ ansible ddc-ucp -m ping

FAILED! => {
“changed”: false,
“module_stderr”: “Shared connection to closed.\r\n”,
“module_stdout”: “/bin/sh: /usr/bin/python3: not found\r\n”,
“msg”: “MODULE FAILURE”,
“rc”: 127
}

Looks like python or python3 is not installed. Not sure if I am allowed to install python. Will Ansible container work?

Thanks,

Derek

I faced the same error in ubuntu machine
you should install python not python3

ansible host -m ping
maf | FAILED! => {
“changed”: false,
“module_stderr”: “Shared connection to xxxxxxx closed.\r\n”,
“module_stdout”: “/bin/sh: 1: /usr/bin/python: not found\r\n”,
“msg”: “MODULE FAILURE”,
“rc”: 127
}

after installing python

apt install python

ansible host -m ping
maf | SUCCESS => {
“changed”: false,
“ping”: “pong”
}
