When you say deploy an OS:

is this a bare-metal Server or a Virtual Machine on vSphere ?

Or Dell IDrac

our server in dell , used below module , it's working fine i have tested already.

but it will trigger till WinEP , from there we have to do manually ,looking for zero touch deployment scenarios like how we do using Microsoft MDT.

let me know if you have any idea.

Hello Pavan.

Ansible is not a bare metal deployment tool.

For bare metal you need wds with pxe of iso boot and mdt and then maybe use Ansible for the other tasks.
