I need to create an alarm associated with one of my AWS instances. For that 
I'm using the following task:

- name: Create CPU utilization metric alarm
  sudo: false
  local_action: ec2_metric_alarm state=present region=us-east-1 name="Alarm 
Name" metric="CPUUtilization" statistic=Average comparison=">=" 
threshold=80.0 unit="Percent" period=300 evaluation_periods=1 
description="It will be triggered when CPU utilization is more than 80% for 
5 minutes" dimensions={'InstanceId':'i-abcdefg'}

And it is failling with this error:













*failed: [ec2-54-237-178-129.compute-1.amazonaws.com] => {"failed": true, 
"parsed": false}invalid output was: Traceback (most recent call last):

Looks like it is trying to parse the dimensions argument as dict() but 
cannot do that.
Any help is appreciated.

Douglas
