The collection at that version is marked as requiring ansible 2.15 or newer. See the `Requires Ansible` section at [Ansible Galaxy](https://galaxy.ansible.com/ui/repo/published/ibm/ibm_zos_core/?version=1.12.0).

Looks like [version 1.8.0](https://galaxy.ansible.com/ui/repo/published/ibm/ibm_zos_core/?version=1.8.0) supports ansible-core 2.14.

Hi,

There is a support matrix [here](https://ibm.github.io/z_ansible_collections_doc/ibm_zos_core/docs/source/resources/releases_maintenance.html), note that this location will change in 2025 when the doc site is updated in Q1 2025.

For ansible-core version 2.14.x support you need to be on `ibm_zos_core` version 1.9.x or less.

Also note that 1.9.x reaches EOL in April 2025; consider updating as needed to remain supported.
