I dont think you can setup direct connection as netapp module for ansible takes care of connection as well with both cluster and svm.

I mean in module itself you pass the login credentails and you specifiy protocols, certificates etc.

According to the ansible documentation the module "command" execute a command on a remote system. I guess you want to ping the filer from the ansible host. If so then try with the module "ping"

ansible 192.168.191.18 -i filers -m ping

Hi, What is your solution? I have exactly the same issue.

"ansible 192.168.191.18 -i filers -m ping" is not working neither. /bin/sh is not recognized command, that is the error when I use "-vvv" option.

Thanks,
