Hello,
I am trying to create an ec2 instance with specific volumes requirement ...
but I keep getting a "this module requires key=value arguments" error
message.
Looking closer at ansible output (see below), it looks like the
single-quoting of the volumes parameter is a little bit "fancy"...
Am I doing something wrong?
