rhc_insights:
- remediation: presentConfigures the ansible host name with a custom value for the system
+record in Host Based Inventory (HBI). This host name is used in
+playbooks by remediations. It is null by default and will
+use the system host name if not specified.
Possible values of this variable:
+null or an empty value: the ansible host name is not
+changed.{state: absent}: the ansible host name is unset in the
+insights-client config file and Host Based Inventory (HBI) is updated to
+use the system host name. rhc_insights:
+ remediation: presentWhether the system is configured to run the Insights remediation;
valid values are present (the default, to ensure
remediation), and absent.
Please note that the Insights remediation is supported only on RHEL 8.4 or greater, as the needed packages are available only starting from that version; on older versions, this parameter has no effect.
