epel7: ansible-2.9.x rpm in epel will be retired (ie, dropped, removed,
no longer appear in repos).
So, yes, you would need to install from pip or if you are using RHEL you
could I think still install the rpm from the ansible-engine channel.
If using pip, you would need to make sure and specify <3.0 or it will
try and install the current version and fail (because python is too old
to meet requirements).
Also, do note that it will be EOL and getting no updates... not even
security updates. :(
