RPMs for RHEL7 are available from `the Extras channel <https://access.redhat.com/solutions/912213>`_.
To enable the Ansible Engine repository, run the following command:
RPMs for RHEL6 are available from yum for `EPEL
<http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/EPEL>`_ 6 and currently supported
Fedora distributions.
