Comment (by dawuud):

 Some progress.
 There were a couple of problems preventing Ansible from working
 on PlanetLab nodes:

 1. ansible.cfg must use scp_if_ssh=True
 2. must have python-simplejson installed

 Completed: Idempotent python2.7 build and install from source tarball.

 Lots of Ansible stuff doesn't work on Fedora 8. Incredibly old.
 Can we upgrade these PlanetLab slice nodes?
 If not then we can still make the best of it with Ansible and or bash
 scripts...
