Hi Everybody,

I am having this issue while I am running from my Mac where ansible doesn’t recognize VMWARE\_GUEST modules though they are installed. Any idea why its not able to recognize? I am using OS Monterey 12.1.

Can anyone help how to resolve it?

**Unsupported parameters for (vmware\_guest) module: customization.autologin, customization.dns\_Servers.**

looks like you are using the wrong parameters, check docs [https://docs.ansible.com/ansible/latest/collections/community/vmware/vmware\_guest\_module.html](https://docs.ansible.com/ansible/latest/collections/community/vmware/vmware_guest_module.html) and edit your playbook  
there is no **autologin** param in **customization** section, only autolog **o** n  
**dns\_Servers** must be **snake\_cased** like all other params, its case sensitive
