I have always used the dynamic inventory foreman.py in AWX connecting with satellite, but I have done an installation AWX 9.2 over openshift and it doesn’t work.

In AWX DOCKER it was necessary to edit the /etc/ansible/foreman.ini file with the access variables in the docker awx-task.

In AWX OCP I try to create the /etc/ansible/foreman.ini file in the container awx-web and awx-celery and I don’t have root permissions.

]# oc rsh -c awx-web awx-0  
sh-4.4$ id  
uid=1000(awx) gid=0(root) groups=0(root)

…  
…

“/etc/ansible/foreman.ini”  
“/etc/ansible/foreman.ini” E212: Can’t open file for writing  
E492: Not an editor command: Q!  
sh-4.4$

Has anyone used foreman.py inventory on AWX with openshift?
