When I run:

- name: Configure the port channels for the VPCs  
nxos\_portchannel:  
provider: “{{ cli }}”  
group: 99  
members: [‘Ethernet1/1/1’]  
mode: ‘active’  
state: present

I get:

An exception occurred during task execution. To see the full traceback, use -vvv. The error was: AttributeError: ‘NetworkModule’ object has no attribute ‘configure’  
fatal: [192.133.148.128]: FAILED! =\> {“changed”: false, “failed”: true, “module\_stderr”: “Traceback (most recent call last):\n File "/tmp/ansible\_X4FZEp/ansible\_module\_nxos\_portchannel.py", line 733, in \n main()\n File "/tmp/ansible\_X4FZEp/ansible\_module\_nxos\_portchannel.py", line 714, in main\n output = execute\_config\_command(cmds, module)\n File "/tmp/ansible\_X4FZEp/ansible\_module\_nxos\_portchannel.py", line 328, in execute\_config\_command\n output = module.configure(commands)\nAttributeError: ‘NetworkModule’ object has no attribute ‘configure’\n”, “module\_stdout”: “”, “msg”: “MODULE FAILURE”}

It seems like I have some dependency problems, but I cannot figure them out. Anyone have any ideas?

Thanks,

Steven.

That looks like a bug in the module… would you mind filing an issue at [http://github.com/ansible/ansible-modules/core](http://github.com/ansible/ansible-modules/core) with this information so we can track it?

I submitted the error for nxos\_portchannel and a similar error for nxos\_command.

Thanks,
