I am doing lab for vNexus Dashboard Fabric Controller, I have login DevBox, but can not install software, because developer user is not in sudoers role, I searched for the community discussion, and been mentioned that the sudoers has been removed for security reason, and all the software has been installed. but when I tried to checked software , I can see python has been installed ,but ansible not been installed, so lab can not go through.
is there anyway to fix the issue?

If this is the same issue as this https://community.cisco.com/t5/devnet-sandbox/ndfc-ansible-llab-setting-up/m-p/5319791#M11487
As @Jesus Illescas mentioned, there is no fix for this right now due to limitations.

In these lab environments, you usually won’t get sudo access because they’re locked down for security. If Ansible isn’t preinstalled, the best option is to check the lab guide or portal—sometimes Ansible is already available in a virtual environment or via a container image (like Docker or Podman). If it truly isn’t installed, you’ll need to raise a ticket or ask the lab support team to enable it, since you won’t be able to install it yourself without elevated privileges.
