Yes , We need a RSA format PEM key which is compatible with the application . Whenever a OPENSSH PRIVATE Key generated with the playbook is used for authentication , login to the application is working but its not functioning 100% as expected . When a RSA format PEM or id_rsa key ( ssh-keygen -t rsa -b 2048) is used then login and functioning of the application is working fine. (vendor recommended RSA format SSH key)
