Has anybody has experience he can share, regarding deploying Operations Manager agents for Windows servers using AWX (Ansible)?

We can't use SCOM Console to deploy the agents, due to our security policy.

    Hi @Edwio ,

    Unfortunately I don't have any experience with Ansible, but it should definitely be possible to achieve.

    Here's an example of how they use the Ansible role to install "OMS" agent:
    https://github.com/svendewindt/ansible-role-omsagent-linux

    Since the SCOM agent is an .msi file, you can refer to the Ansible documentation below on how to install/uninstall Windows .msi files:

    win_msi – Installs and uninstalls Windows MSI files
    https://docs.ansible.com/ansible/2.7/modules/win_msi_module.html

    ----------

    (If the reply was helpful please don't forget to upvote and/or accept as answer, thank you)

    Best regards,
    Leon
