Anything else do we need to know:
The Ansible task fails saying that there is a broken pipe and it appears it's trying to move the version of kubeadm I want from /tmp to /usr/local/bin/kubeadm but the binary is already there and is the correct version.

Upgrading to the latest version of Ansible, via Pip (2.9.5) appears to have fixed the issue on one server. The other two servers in my cluster now error with.

yum -y install sshpass
