Dear Colleagues,

Hi Amadin,

Follow below steps to to ping hosts:

Create ssh connection with host 

And ping to the host using below command:

#ansible <host> -i <inventory-file> -m ping

and then run playbook on that host.

Or

You can avoid this by providing ansible_password (The password to use to authenticate to the host) in inventory

Hope this will work.

Regards,
