      .Ansible remediations require additional collections

      With the replacement of Ansible Engine by the `ansible-core` package, the list of Ansible modules provided with the RHEL subscription is reduced. As a consequence, running remediations that use Ansible content included within the `scap-security-guide` package requires collections from the `rhc-worker-playbook` package.

      For an Ansible remediation, perform the following steps:

      . Install the required packages:
      +
      ----
      # dnf install -y ansible-core scap-security-guide rhc-worker-playbook
      ----

      . Navigate to the `/usr/share/scap-security-guide/ansible` directory:
      +
      ----
      # cd /usr/share/scap-security-guide/ansible
      ----

      . Run the relevant Ansible playbook using environment variables that define the path to the additional Ansible collections:
      +
      [subs="+quotes",options="nowrap",role="white-space-pre"]
      ----
      # ANSIBLE_COLLECTIONS_PATH=/usr/share/rhc-worker-playbook/ansible/collections/ansible_collections/ ansible-playbook -c local -i localhost, rhel9-playbook-_cis_server_l1_.yml
      ----
      +
      Replace `_cis_server_l1_` with the ID of the profile against which you want to remediate the system.

      As a result, the Ansible content is processed correctly.

      [NOTE]
      ====
      Support of the collections provided in `rhc-worker-playbook` is limited to enabling the Ansible content sourced in `scap-security-guide`.

      Description of problem:
      On a RHEL 9 server/minimal installation without non-RHEL Ansible bits installed it seems not possible to run SCAP playbooks locally in an offline (non-RH connected) environment:

      1. rm -rf ~/.ansible
      2. dnf install -y ansible-core scap-security-guide
      3. cd /usr/share/scap-security-guide/ansible
      4. ansible-playbook -c local -i localhost, rhel9-playbook-cis_server_l1.yml
        ERROR! couldn't resolve module/action 'ini_file'. This often indicates a
        misspelling, missing collection, or incorrect module path.
