An admin needs to restrict which users can launch specific job templates. Which AAP feature should be used?

A company is deploying Ansible Automation Platform (AAP) in a three-node cluster: one automation controller node, one private automation hub node, and one database node (PostgreSQL). The deployment uses an execution environment that pulls from the private automation hub. After a successful installation, all nodes are reachable and services are running. However, when launching a job template that uses the execution environment, the job fails with the error: 'Unable to pull execution environment image from automation-hub.example.com:5000/ee/my-ee:latest - request to registry failed with status 403 Forbidden'. The administrator confirms that the execution environment image exists in the private automation hub and that the automation controller node can reach the registry via curl. What is the most likely cause and solution?

An admin attempts to run this playbook as a job template in AAP. The job fails with 'ERROR! 'now' is not a valid attribute for a task'. What is the issue?

An administrator is configuring a new Red Hat Ansible Automation Platform 2.5 installation and must connect the automation controller to a private automation hub so that certified and validated collections can be pulled during project syncs. The administrator wants the controller to authenticate to the hub and resolve collections automatically. Which TWO actions should the administrator take to accomplish this? (Choose two.)

Drag and drop the steps to configure a basic NFS server to export a directory in the correct order.

An administrator is deploying a containerized Ansible Automation Platform 2.4 on a RHEL 9 host using the `ansible-container-installer`. After running the installation, the automation controller web UI is unreachable, and `podman ps` shows that the `automation-controller` container is in a restart loop. The administrator checks the container logs and sees repeated messages about failing to connect to the PostgreSQL database. The database container is running. Which action should the administrator take next?

An administrator is deploying a containerized Ansible Automation Platform 2.4 on RHEL 9. After running the installer, the `automation-controller` containers fail to start, and the installer log reports that the `podman` service is not running. The administrator confirms that `podman` is installed. Which action should the administrator take to resolve the failure?

An administrator is installing Ansible Automation Platform 2.4 on a RHEL 9 server. They have extracted the installer tarball and are ready to run the setup script. Which command should they use to perform a standard installation using the default inventory?

Match each Ansible module to its primary function.

An organization runs Red Hat Ansible Automation Platform 2.5 with a containerized automation controller. Administrators want job output and automation logs centralized so that a security team can search historical runs and correlate them with SIEM events. Which supported capability should the administrator configure to forward controller logs to an external logging endpoint?

An administrator is deploying Ansible Automation Platform 2.4 with an external PostgreSQL database. The database administrator has created a database named `awx` and a user named `awx`, and has confirmed network connectivity from the AAP controller node to the database on port 5432. When the administrator runs the installer, the setup playbook fails during the database migration step with a permission error. Which configuration value is most likely missing or incorrect?

An administrator deploys AAP 2.4 with an external PostgreSQL database. After the installation completes, the automation controller web UI is reachable, but jobs fail immediately with database connection errors. The administrator confirms the database host is reachable on port 5432 and the credentials in the inventory are correct. Which action should be taken to resolve the issue?

Which TWO statements are true about deploying Red Hat Ansible Automation Platform using the automation mesh?

An automation architect is deploying Red Hat Ansible Automation Platform 2.4 on a RHEL 9 control node. The setup bundle has been extracted, and the admin runs `./setup.sh` from the installer directory. During the pre-flight checks, the installer reports that the PostgreSQL database is not reachable and aborts. The admin confirms that the database server is running and that the inventory file contains the correct hostname. Which action should the admin take to resolve the installation failure?

An admin imports this inventory into AAP and assigns a machine credential that uses SSH key authentication. The job fails with 'Authentication failed'. What is the most likely cause?

A systems administrator is preparing to install Red Hat Ansible Automation Platform 2.4 on a RHEL 9 server. They have downloaded the installer tarball and extracted it. Which file must they edit to specify the target hosts and authentication credentials for the installation?

Match each Ansible inventory parameter to its meaning.

An automation engineer is deploying Red Hat Ansible Automation Platform 2.4 using the bundled installer on a RHEL 9 control node. The inventory file is configured with `[automationcontroller]` and `[automationhub]` groups. After running `./setup.sh`, the installation fails with the message 'Unable to resolve the DNS name for the automation hub host'. The engineer verifies that the hostname is correct and resolvable from the control node. What is the most likely cause of this failure?

Which THREE are valid user roles within an Automation Controller organization? (Choose three.)

An admin is configuring a project in Automation Platform to pull playbooks from a Git repository. Which source control type should be selected?

A company is deploying Red Hat Ansible Automation Platform 2.3 in a hybrid cloud environment. The automation controller is installed on a RHEL 8 server in the on-premises data center. Execution nodes are distributed: four in the same data center, two in a remote branch office connected via VPN, and three in AWS EC2 instances. The VPN connection to the branch office is low-bandwidth and high-latency. The AWS nodes use a direct connect with stable bandwidth. During initial testing, playbooks running on the branch office execution nodes frequently timeout or hang, while on-premises and AWS nodes work fine. The automation mesh topology is configured with all nodes as direct children of the controller. The team wants to minimize latency and ensure reliable execution for the branch office nodes. Which course of action should the administrator take?

The admin builds a custom EE using `ansible-builder` with a `execution-environment.yml` file that includes a `base_image: registry.redhat.io/ansible-automation-platform-21/ee-minimal-rhel8:latest` and a custom Python requirement. However, the controller reports that the EE is not found when launching a job. What is the most likely issue?
