Stalled out following Task [Copying Context]

[jaredAMD]

I'm in the process of working through a simple "One managed node, same node as control node" scenario (as specified in the "getting started" documentation) and appear to have stalled out. Specifically, executing the deploy command as follows:

sb deploy -f local.ini -i superbench/superbench:v0.4.0-rocm4.2-pytorch1.7

will initiate a series of tasks, culminating with TASK [Copying Context], at which point the progress (to the best that I can tell), just holds. Can you advise? Much appreciated.

Not an issue with a remote managed node; in this context deploy will progress as anticipated.

Hi, could you try the following command to check Ansible debug log?

 ANSIBLE_VERBOSITY=4 sb deploy -l localhost -i superbench/superbench:v0.4.0-rocm4.2-pytorch1.7

-l localhost should do the same as local.ini, ANSIBLE_VERBOSITY=4 will tell which command Ansible is actually running.

Because TASK [Copying Context] is the first task that requires sudo in sb deploy, could you also verify command like sudo ls works fine in the local account? If it requires password, pls try with sb deploy -l localhost --host-password [sudo pass] ..., although in my environment Ansible always prints error message instead of stuck in this case.
