Ansible tower trial licence
Hello,
I have a local ansible tower setup for evaluation of the product. When I connect to the web ui it asks me for a licence and sends me to https://www.ansible.com/license.
I have filled out the form multiple times and have not received any trial licence from RedHat.
Has anyone completed this process successfully and how long did it take?
Tom

Hi Thomas,
Best would be to contact the Ansible team directly in this case. :)

Hi Thomas,
Edited
Ansible Tower is a paid product from Red Hat. Use Christian Labisch's link - Red Hat even points to that. As Christian Labisch says later - The Ansible team is owned by Red Hat Regards

Hi RJ,
When I click on the link https://www.redhat.com/en/technologies/management/ansible and then click on "Try
Ansible Tower", I'm landing on https://access.redhat.com/products/ansible-tower-red-hat and from there we
can access https://www.ansible.com/tower-trial or https://www.ansible.com/contact-us ... so, I think for Tower
we indeed have to get in touch with the Ansible team. Anyway, Ansible is a member of the Red Hat family. :)

Hi Hashim,
Just visit https://www.ansible.com/tower-trial to get the free trial license. :)

Like other have said, the above link takes you to a download the whole package (AGAIN) page. Not to a page to get a license.

Hi Keith,
Like I already have said, in case you don't get a license there : please contact the Ansible team ! :)

Good Day All,
I have also downloaded and installed the evaluation version from the above link but see no place to actually get the free license key. Once installed Ansible Tower redirects https://www.ansible.com/license to request a license. This in turn redirects to https://www.redhat.com/en/technologies/management/ansible/try-it which allows one to download the compressed application file ansible-tower-setup-bundle-3.6.2-1.tar.gz. Similarly https://www.ansible.com/tower-trial redirects to the same page. The installation guide https://docs.ansible.com/ansible-tower/latest/html/quickstart/import_license.html refers one to http://www.ansible.com/license for free and paid license optons which also redirects to the same page. How exactly does one get a hold of the evaluation license.

Khetho Mtembo and anyone coming to this discussion
Contact the ansible team directly if you want a trial of Ansible or cannot activate your license. Please see previous replies to this thread.

Thank you so much indeed contacting the Ansible team I got the evaluation license. It would be nice however if the various documentation even on the installation itself also communicated as such instead of misleading potential customers.

Hi Ganesh,
We are volunteers in this community, and not employed by Red Hat ... so unfortunately we cannot send you the
licence. Did you contact the Ansible team (https://www.ansible.com/contact-us) already ? If not, please do it. :)

Christian
Hi Christian, Yes I have filled my details in Ansible link.Could you tell me how much time they took to send the lisence file. Also this free trial lisence for howmany days validation.
Thanks Ganesh

No Ganesh, I don't know how long it takes ... shouldn't take too much time though. You have two options to
eventually accelerate the procedure : Either start a phone call (the phone numbers are provided on the site
link I gave you) or write a mail by using the mail address info@ansible.com. Hope it helps, I wish good luck. :)

Christian
Can someone tell me the licence file exact path after downloading the trial version of Ansible Tower
I installed the free trial bundle early last week, and also sent the Ansible Tower license request via this email info@ansible.com. Has anyone received the 90-day trial license from Ansible / Redhat recently? Can you tell us how long it takes to get the license? Thanks

All,
This might not be an answer to all questions, but their is a major difference between Ansible Tower on RHEL and other Linux distributions. For RHEL based installations you get an Ansible Tower subscription, which can be attached at first login via the WebUI.
At the WebUI you give the same credentials you use for subscription-manager or to attach subscriptions to a RH Satellite. I have not tested a subscription attachment via RH Satellite.
