 Need to fix the error

Additional info:

- In /etc/yum.conf following line helps to avoid the error:

 #exclude=ansible-2.9.17,ansible-2.9.15,ansible-2.9.16
Comment 2 Sandro Bonazzola 2021-01-27 06:39:02 UTC 
This is covered by RHV 4.4 upgrade documentation: https://access.redhat.com/documentation/en-us/red_hat_virtualization/4.4/html/upgrade_guide/updating_the_red_hat_virtualization_manager_minor_updates pointing to https://access.redhat.com/solutions/5480561 

In RHV 4.4.5 we are going to stop using ansible channel and shipping the required ansible version within RHV channels.
Comment 3 Michal Skrivanek 2021-01-27 11:18:40 UTC 
rright, but for now this is fixed in documentation and it should have been followed
