Hello,

In order to use the setup module launched by default we have to have on the remote server the lsb\_release command which is given by the redhat-lsb-core package.  
Unfortunately I found that package only from el6 and I have el5 too.  
Do you know how can I do if I want to use the ansible setup module on el5 servers?

Thanks

redhat-lsb  
Be careful that only version =\< ansible 2.3 is able to adress CentOS / RHEL 5.x servers

Yeah I found that package for RHEL 5, but it installs a lot of useless packages for me, I only need lsb\_release script, that’s why I’m looking for redhat-lsb-core but for RHEL 5.  
Do you know how could I process?

And what are you talking about when you say “Be careful that only version =\< ansible 2.3 is able to adress CentOS / RHEL 5.x servers” ?

Hi,

If you want lsb\_release, this is the package… no other right way

# rpm -qf /usr/bin/lsb\_release

redhat-lsb-4.0-2.1.4.el5
