Ansible not showing latest version after yum upgrade on Redhat 6.x

[asi...@net-sense.com]

Hello All,

Before upgrading the Ansible version is 2.1.2.  After using yum to update the Ansible package, the version still states 2.1.2?? What am missing?  Did I do something wrong here?

Thx

Al

[allan@SDNAUTOS02 ~]$ ansible --version

ansible 2.1.2.0

  config file = /etc/ansible/ansible.cfg

  configured module search path = ['/etc/ansible/roles/Juniper.junos/library']

[allan@SDNAUTOS02 ~]$

Here is a version check after the update.  Still says the same exact version???

[allan@SDNAUTOS02 ~]$ ansible --version

ansible 2.1.2.0

  config file = /etc/ansible/ansible.cfg

  configured module search path = ['/etc/ansible/roles/Juniper.junos/library']

[allan@SDNAUTOS02 ~]$

[asi...@net-sense.com]

Found the problem.  This system actually has 2 versions of Ansible installed .....  Does anyone know why the first one states the "python version" but the second one does not?

[allan@SDNAUTOS02 my-ansible]$ /usr/bin/ansible --version

ansible 2.3.0.0

  config file = /home/allan/my-ansible/ansible.cfg

  configured module search path = [u'/etc/ansible/roles/Juniper.junos/library']

  python version = 2.6.6 (r266:84292, Aug  9 2016, 06:11:56) [GCC 4.4.7 20120313 (Red Hat 4.4.7-17)]

[allan@SDNAUTOS02 my-ansible]$ /usr/local/bin/ansible --version

ansible 2.1.2.0

  config file = /home/allan/my-ansible/ansible.cfg

  configured module search path = ['/etc/ansible/roles/Juniper.junos/library']
