Hi,
I'm currently testing using AWX as an API to run PowerShell commands via
ansible playbooks.
I'm currently testing using the Get-AD user command as this is close to
what I'll be doing.
I'm using the following Ansible playbook
- name: Test Extra Variables and PowerShell Command
hosts: all
collections:
tasks:
- name: Show Extra Variables
debug:
msg:
- "NewUserName: {{ NewUserName }}"
- "UserManager: {{ UserManager }}"
- name: Run PowerShell Command with SYSTEM account
ansible.windows.win_shell: |
whoami
Test-NetConnection server.Domain.local -port 9389
Get-ADDomainController -ForceDiscover -Discover -Service ADWS
-NextClosestSite
Get-ADUser -Identity {{ NewUserName }}
register: result
- name: Show PowerShell Command Result
debug:
var: result.stdout_lines
but get-ADUser errors with :
Get-ADUser : Unable to contact the server. This may be because this server
does not exist, it is currently down, or it
does not have the Active Directory Web Services running.
At line:4 char:1
+ Get-ADUser -Identity bbuilder
+ ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+ CategoryInfo : ResourceUnavailable: (bbuilder:ADUser)
[Get-ADUser], ADServerDownException
+ FullyQualifiedErrorId :
ActiveDirectoryServer:0,Microsoft.ActiveDirectory.Management.Commands.GetADUser
but I don't have any issues running Get-ADUser under my account or the
service account used for the playbook on the same server.
the following in the playbook work as expected:
Test-NetConnection server.Domain.local -port 9389
Get-ADDomainController -ForceDiscover -Discover -Service ADWS
-NextClosestSite
It feels like there is something missing PowerShell environment used by
Ansible, but I cant see what could cause this.
Please advise.
thank you
G
