SUMMARY

New to using Ansible. Hope I am logging this issue to the right place. If not , apologies. Running a playbook so as to update configutations on network devices. Playbook references a jinga file so as to load modules which are blocks of IOS code This playbook fails intermittely at different points with the error included above. The playbook runs succesfully the very odd time.

Hi Rene,

Thank you very much for the reply.

Sry, I am not sure what I need to do.. I have lack of experience in Linux/python/ansible.. I am learning, but slowly! I couldn’t find a description of what I need to remove/change/amend on the site.

Do I need to remove/amend this file ?

Please try to set ANSIBLE_PERSISTENT_COMMAND_TIMEOUT envvar to a big value, like 300. That setting is what bumps the timeout on persistent connection commands.
