Inefficient Shell commands used

[pemsith]

Describe the bug
There's shell commands used in the play to create directories and grant access. This can cause performance overhead. The recommended way is to use an Ansible moduled dedicated for these actions

To Reproduce
Instance 1: Go to ansible/configs/ocp-ha-disconnected-lab/post_ocp_nfs_config.yml
see this play. use file module instead

• name: Step 00xxxxx post software
  hosts: support
  gather_facts: false
  become: true
  tasks:
  • name: Create user vols
    shell: "mkdir -p /srv/nfs/user-vols/vol{1..{{user_vols}}}"
  • name: chmod the user vols
    shell: "chmod -R 777 /srv/nfs/user-vols"

Instance 2: Go to ansible/configs/ocp-ha-disconnected-lab/post_software.yml
use file module instead

• name: Configure NFS host for user-vols if required
  hosts: support
  gather_facts: false
  become: true
  tasks:
  • name: Create user vols
    shell: "mkdir -p /srv/nfs/user-vols/vol{1..{{user_vols}}}"
    tags:
    • openshift_nfs_config
  • name: chmod the user vols
    shell: "chmod -R 777 /srv/nfs/user-vols"
    tags:
    • openshift_nfs_config

Instance 3: Go to ansible/configs/ocp-ha-lab/post_ocp_nfs_config.yml
use file module instead

Instance 4: Go to ansible/configs/ocp-ha-lab/post_software.yml
use file module instead

Instance 5: go to ansible/configs/rhel-security/nbde.yml
you can use Firewalld module instead
- name: Firewalld - add cockpit service
command: /usr/bin/firewall-cmd --permanent --add-service=cockpit

Instance 6: go to ansible/configs/sap-hana/software.yml
you can use Yum module
- name: Ensure Python3 package is installed and alternatives for python updated
shell: >
yum install -y python3 && alternatives --set python /usr/bin/python3

Expected behavior
use Ansible module for better performance and avoid shell and command as much as possible
