raw commands to appliances with limited SSH support

[Craig Wilson]

We are trying to issue a command to a storage appliance we have, I have setup the raw module but I am getting /bin/sh does not exist errors, how can I stop ansible executing the command as /bin/sh -c 'command rather than just sending "command", Annoyingly ansible even reports the command as successful since it successfully passed the command to the node. 

my playbook:

---
- hosts: Test01
  remote_user: user
  gather_facts: no  
  tasks:
  - name: showcon
    raw: show con

output:

$ ansible-playbook showcon.yml  -vvvv --step


PLAY [Test01] ******************************************************************
