Hello,
I think I found part of the cause of the problem.
I am using scientific linux 7 so maybe its too different from RHEL7 so
the following part of the ansible code doesn't find the correct version
- name: upgrade | nfs path
set_fact:
scale_nfs_url: 'ganesha_rpms/rhel7/'
when: ansible_distribution in scale_rhel_distribution and
ansible_distribution_major_version == '7'
would there be a way for the precheck command to understand that it is
an os similar to rhel 7 ?
For exemple, running that `LINUX_DISTRIBUTION=REDHAT_AS_LINUX
mmbuildgpl` worked previously for mmbuildgpl
Best regards
Paul
