Hi,
I did the cmd “ansible esxi -u root -m ping -vvvv” and got “ImportError: No module named grp”. see full msg below. What I understand is that the ESXi 5.5 has python 2.6.8 and it may not have the full python standard pkgs from my googling. I wonder if there is any workarounds to make it working?
Thanks,
Huan
