Hello, we have two powermax connected by SRDF. Ansible connect to emgnt of the first powermax. we want to launch command on both storage. but we got the following error when attempt to run command on the second powermax : ASK [dba.generic.pmax_manage_host : Create host with initiators] ********************************************************************************************************************** fatal: [localhost]: FAILED! = {"changed": false, "msg": "Create host nomserveur failed with error Bad or unexpected response from the storage volume backend API: Error POST symmetrix resource. The status code received is 403 and the message is {'message': 'C:VMAX\\\\******** does not have authorisation on Symmetrix 000xxxxxxxxxx as role Admin, StorageAdmin'}."} What should we do to make it work. Thanks.

Hi @ditdba 

The error msg and status code from the API seem to suggest an authorization error to perform the create host task. Could you please check if authorization exists for the user on the symmetrix to create a host?

Could you also share the playbook that you are executing?

Thanks,

Jennifer
