With what should I use ansbile?
Look into AWX as an alternative to Tower. If you just want better reporting on runs, check out ARA or callback plugins.
- Show HN: ARA Records Ansible and makes it easier to understand and troubleshoot
-
Ansible-Semaphore vs Ansible AWX
Also worth considering is ARA for playbook reporting, and then whatever you want for orchestration (Jenkins, Azure Devops, Rundeck, etc).
-
Zabbix to monitor ansible
Why not use ara?
-
How would I get a list of IP addresses of failed hosts and details?
For general recording of playbook activity with a web dashboard, ARA works really well.
- Planning on writing a callback plugin - is there a unique variable to identify a particular play being run?
-
A way to log which user excuted a playbook
If you don’t want any UI / access control then you can also look at ARA - https://ara.recordsansible.org This works as a callback plugin to capture the job run data.

Benchmarking ansible-core 2.11 vs 2.14 and python 3.9 vs 3.11 along with ara's database backends
I'm not sure how to interpret running 100 debug messages (https://github.com/ansible-community/ara/blob/master/tests/integration/benchmark_tasks.yaml) into real life performance. Mitogen's Benchmark used either 100 times a "hostname" command on the target machine (https://github.com/mitogen-hq/mitogen/blob/master/tests/ansible/bench/loop-100-items.yml) or running the DebOps project (https://github.com/debops/debops-playbooks/blob/master/playbooks/common.yml) for some sorta real-world module usage.

Has anyone had any luck setting up a playbook to register a new RHEL box to an on-prem RHSM satellite?
If you're using AAP2x with Automation Hub you can use the redhat.satellite collection. See https://github.com/RedHatSatellite/satellite-ansible-collection. Otherwise you can also look at theforeman collection at https://github.com/theforeman/foreman-ansible-modules. There is a role available under both collection for activation keys.

how am i supposed to provision servers with ansible without kickstart
and you can control the configuration of Foreman and send commands to it (e.g. provision a new server) using the Foreman Ansible Collection at https://github.com/theforeman/foreman-ansible-modules
- Foreman with ansible is a good thing to use ?
What are some alternatives?
