Hello!
I tried to install latest AWX Operator on my CentOS 7 vm using following guide: https://github.com/kurokobo/awx-on-k3s
Does anyone know, how am i able to import multiple hosts or my own inventory file into AWX ?

Br,
Kimmo

I tried to use "sourced from a project" method, but im not able to see my inventory file.  
Could it be, that it does not work with a project, which is using manual source control? or is it overall bug ?

I use this method all the time now and it shows up. Have you updated  the project, formatted correctly?

Hmm, i think so. I did try again and now im getting an error message -  Cannot use manual project for SCM-based inventory. Any suggestions ? Maybe im still doing something wrong ?

This "/ (project root)" was my only choice. So i did try to type manually inventory.ini file there and then i got that error. Should this inventory file come into the selection itself ?

As i understand, my project "Source Control Credential Type" must be something different, not manual yes ? Otherwise, it won't work.

What's your project where your source files are? Click on the magnifying glass and locate your project (or did you do that)?

I already did that yes. My "lab" project is located locally on the same host.

Yeah sure. Rancher is essentially just a view into your kubernetes cluster. Just follow the instructions in awx. It will deploy into the kubernetes cluster. Once there  and deployed and I want to upgrade I just use rancher to update the operator. 

Let me know if there is anything specific thst you are looking for. 😊
