This playbook is used to locate required dependencies (Python, ZOAU) on the remote z/OS host and build a suitable host configuration using the discovered dependencies.
It is a good practice to review the playbook sample contents before executing them. It will help you understand the requirements in terms of space, location, names, authority, and the artifacts that will be created and cleaned up. Although samples are written to operate without the need for the user’s configuration, flexibility is written into the samples because it is not easy to determine if a sample has access to the host’s resources. Review the playbook notes sections for additional details and configuration.

ansible-playbook -i "mysystem.to.connect.com," host_setup.yamlIf the user that connects to the host is different from the user submitting the playbook, you can optionally instruct the playbook to use another user with option '-u ' for example:
