Hello All.

Need a little bit of help trying to get an execution node working with my AWX cluster. I was able to complete the process and AWX see’s the execution node. However when I assign a template to it, and run it. I get the below and the template statys running.

`failed to set net.ipv6.conf.default.accept_dad sysctl: open /proc/sys/net/ipv6/conf/default/accept_dad: no such file or directory`

Looks like I might need to turn something off?

Not sure! Thanks for the help.

here is an article on the same error message

you can set DEFAULT\_CONTAINER\_RUN\_OPTIONS in the UI under Job Settings

set “slirp4netns:enable\_ipv6=true” to false and try running the job
