I'd like to install software on a virtual machine using Ansible and register this software as records in CMDB. How can I do this?

Hi Dominik,
Installing Software using Ansible playbook should be easy. You can find an example here https://www.redhat.com/sysadmin/software-packages-ansible
And using Software Discovery the software details will be stored in corresponding tables inside CMDB. More information on Software discovery can be found here https://docs.servicenow.com/bundle/rome-it-operations-management/page/product/discovery/concept/c_So...
Hope this helps.

Yes, OOTB discovery will pull back the installed software via OS disco scan.
