Description Eric Jones 2016-11-14 22:11:52 UTC
Description of problem:
When running the installer on one of the systems they are trying to install in the cluster, it hangs when it reaches the Start and enable iptables task. The customer eventually cancels it (ctrl+c) and restarts the installer (where it then immediately succeeds).

Seems at least related to: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1379189
(don't think it is exactly the same issue though.

Per Scott Dodson's suggestion, customer tried adding "ansible_connection=local" to the host running the ansible installer. This did not work. Customer is unable to try running the installer from an external system at this time.
