Which tool will Ansible not use, even if available, to gather facts?

A.
facter
B. lsb_release
C. Ansible setup module
D. ohai

Correct Answer: B

Explanation:

Explanation:
Ansible will use its own `setup’ module to gather facts for the local system. Additionally, if ohai or facter are installed, those will also be used and all variables will be prefixed with `ohai_’ or `facter_’ respectively. `lsb_relase’ is a Linux tool for determining distribution information.
