Hi,

I’m a beginner on awx and ansible.

I have a template with RHEL7 on vmware and I trying to clone a vm and register on rhn.

My playbook create vm without issue and take all parameters from survey on awx, but I have a doubt how to register on RHN?  
In my template there is already linux user ansible with ssh rsa public key in authorized\_hosts, so my ansible can access without problems.

How to execute the task on new created host and not localhost?

you need to put add\_host to it adds the vm created to the current inventory then do the RHN part. This blog has a good explanation
