Hi Team

We are using awx 9.0.1.0 version.  
After logging in to the server where awx is installed I ran below command

awx-manage - - version

I got a below error

awx-manage command not found in the system.

I had tried searching about this error but couldn't find much information.

Can you please help me and let me know how to troubleshoot this error?  
Do I have to import any additional packages?

Regards  
Vinayak

Hi Pawan,

Did you execute `awx-manage --version` command inside the **awx\_task** container? If not, log in to **awx\_task** container on AWX server and then try running the same command to see if it helps.

Thanks Om for this info..  
I am able to execute the awx-manage - - version command now.

While doing bulk inventory import I used below command and it got executed successfully as expected

awx-manage inventory\_import --inventory-name Linux\_UA\_Hosts --source hosts\_add

Now i am searching for a command where I can add bulk host entries inside a particular group of inventory...  
Gone through few documentation but wasn't able to figure out much..

Can you please help?
