From Infoscale Ansible v2.4.0 onwards, the veritas_infoscale.py file is shipped as an Ansible collection.

To install the Ansible collection - if the Ansible version is 2.9.10 or higher, use the following command:

# ansible-galaxy collection install veritas-infoscale-<release_version>.tar.gz

To upgrade the local Ansible collection, use the following command:

# ansible-galaxy collection install veritas-infoscale-<release_version>.tar.gz --force

The InfoScale Ansible collection is installated at the following path:

/root/.ansible/collections/ansible_collections/veritas/infoscale/

If the Ansible version is not compatible for collections - lower than 2.9.10, you must untar the tar file and navigate to the following file path:

veritas/infoscale/plugins/modules/veritas_infoscale.py inside the tar file and move the veritas_infoscale.py to /usr/share/ansible/plugins/modules/ to use it as a module.
