.Installation of {product} Dashboard using the `ansible` user Previously, installing {product} Dashboard (cephmetrics) with Ansible required root access. Traditionally, Ansible uses passwordless ssh and sudo with a regular user to install and make changes to systems. In this release, the {product} Dashboard can be installed with `ansible` using a regular user. For more information on the {product} Dashboard, see the link:{admin-guide}#installing-the-red-hat-ceph-storage-dashboard-management[Administration Guide].

We should not be telling users that they need to be root to run ansible! Our playbooks work normally as non-root; in fact, that is the only way I've ever executed them.

Comment 9 Christina Meno 2018-06-06 22:07:04 UTC
this should be fixed by the docs change, moving to ON_QA
