In my servers i can able to execute commands only via “sudo su -” . so I’m looking option to login server with my local username and do sudo su - to excute commands .

I could see some path on [https://github.com/ansible/ansible/pull/13764/commits/047fcd5902102407259b7db4df8aa219e1c538ae](https://github.com/ansible/ansible/pull/13764/commits/047fcd5902102407259b7db4df8aa219e1c538ae) . Is it the only option available and so means how to apply to my system .
