The tasks in the IBM® z/OS® CICS® collection can be classified into two types, CMCI tasks and provisioning tasks, and they have different requirements for the managed nodes.

The CMCI tasks in the IBM® z/OS® CICS® collection interact with the managed node over an HTTP connection by leveraging the CMCI REST API. Therefore, an SSH connection is not required. Instead, you can delegate Ansible tasks to run on the control node, for example, by specifying delegate_to: 'localhost' for the task in the playbook. In this case, you install dependencies on your localhost instead of the managed node.
