   vim ansible.cfg

   Add the following configuration and save:

   [defaults]
   inventory=./inventory

3. Create the inventory file:

   your-local-ip ansible_connection=local

   Example:

   [localhost]
   192.168.101.214 ansible_connection=local

4. Run ansible --version to verify if the configuration file has been picked up.
