-## Ansible Collections
-
-The Ansible Collections are not packaged (yet) on recent versions of OSP and RHEL when `ansible-core` is
-installed instead of Ansible 2.9. So the collections need to be installed from `ansible-galaxy`.

-```sh
-ansible-galaxy collection install "openstack.cloud:<2.0.0" ansible.utils community.general
