I don’t know where to start with this one. The Installation Manager is 180mb, and we have 6gb available and plenty of inodes. We can move a 100kb file, no problem, so it actually looks like space, but I have no idea how to tell it to use all the space.

tasks:

- get\_url:  
url=“http://internal\_server/im/agent.installer.aix.gtk.ppc\_1.8.9005.20190801\_1645.zip”  
dest=“/tmp/agent.installer.aix.gtk.ppc\_1.8.9005.20190801\_1645.zip”

(Also tried with dest=“/tmp”

Hello, your question seems to be about using Ansible, not about AWX. [https://groups.google.com/g/ansible-project](https://groups.google.com/g/ansible-project?authuser=1) is the best place to visit for user questions about Ansible. Thanks!

Thank you. I’ve posted there. Does it matter that I’m running in AWX, not Engine?

AWX adds some layers, but ultimately AWX will call ansible engine in the end, and the jobs failures you see are when ansible engine is evoked.

Thank you. That helps me understand the groups themselves. 🙂
