Description Scott Dodson 2019-11-18 15:54:19 UTC 
+++ This bug was initially created as a clone of Bug #1773634 +++

Description of problem:

When setting up a Rhel worker node by running the openshift_node role within openshift-ansible, the role attempts to install packages that aren't available for all architectures, as such it fails on non-x86_64 architectures.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
openshift-ansible release-4.2


How reproducible:
Consistent


Steps to Reproduce:
1. Against a ppc64le or s390x cluster run the scaleup.yml playbook (following https://access.redhat.com/documentation/en-us/openshift_container_platform/4.1/html/machine_management/adding-rhel-compute) to add an additional Rhel worker node.

Actual results:
The Install openshift support packages task fails:

Additional info:
A fix has gone into release-4.3 so would only be required for release-4.2.
