Is there any data you can provide? Possibly some debug output, or cli testing for this issue?

What version of Morpheus are you on? I found an issue with version detection, but I've been testing against newer builds.

[eisiv]

We're on 5.4.1

[tryfan]

Ok, I can test on that version. Can you share the scrubbed inventory file itself?

So, there's a few issues that I've found. I tested with Ubuntu 20.04, Morpheus 5.4.1-2, ansible-core 2.11.6.

In your example, you are referencing the plugin using morpheus_inventory. In Ansible > 2.9, plugins are usually referenced by the FQCN, which in this case is morpheus.core.morpheus_inventory. You can confirm by using ansible-doc -t inventory -l as the morpheus-local user. My output for that is in the gist.

I installed the ansible collection as the morpheus-local user: ansible-galaxy collection install morpheus.core. I created an inventory file referencing tags and got a successful return.

The issue I did run into is this:

[WARNING]:  * Failed to parse /opt/morpheus/.local/inv.yml with auto plugin: Invalid value "morpheus.core.morpheus_inventory" for configuration option "plugin_type:
inventory plugin: ansible_collections.morpheus.core.plugins.inventory.morpheus_inventory setting: plugin ", valid values are: ['morpheus_inventory']

I'm going to fix that issue and update the collection. The workaround is to modify the DOCUMENTATION block on line 24 of morpheus/core/plugins/inventory/morpheus_inventory.py and add to the choices: entry:

choices: ['morpheus_inventory', 'morpheus.core.morpheus_inventory']

Gist with output: https://gist.github.com/tryfan/9ff4e68f1a9c4130db11400390d189c6

[eisiv]

Tried updating that line, no errors with the FQCN atleast, but still no hosts being fetched.
I'm wondering wether this also requires the Ansible plugin to be configured on all subtenants, or shouldn't that matter?

[tryfan]

The plugin is executed from the morpheus-local user, the tenant uses the same task backend, so it's all the same. My suspicion is that the morpheus-local user is using a different version of the plugin, and it's just being hidden with the path. The following can test all of that:

su - morpheus-local
mkdir collectiontesttmp
cd collectiontesttmp
virtualenv venv
source venv/bin/activate
pip install ansible-core==2.11.6 requests
ansible-galaxy collection install -p ./collections https://github.com/tryfan/ansible-collection-morpheus-core/releases/download/v0.2.2/morpheus-core-0.2.2.tar.gz
COLLECTIONS_PATHS=./collections
# make a simple inventory plugin with no vault for testing, just the api key and url
ansible-inventory -i <inventory.yml> --list -vvvv

The verbosity will confirm from where the collection is being loaded. I have sourced a patched version of the plugin in my public repo that is in testing. This is my output:

Made sure that it's using the correct plugin version, but still no dice.
