Hey All,

I'm trying to force a task to run based on a host variable I've set.  The 
goal is to only have the task run (on a host) when the 
"elasticsearch_purge_old_indices_node" variable is set to "yes".

Inventory file:

[elasticsearch]
elasticsearch1 elasticsearch_purge_old_indices_node=yes
elasticsearch2
elasticsearch3


Task:

- name: add a nightly cronjob task to purge node
  lineinfile: dest=/etc/crontab line="0 1 * * * * root /path/to/script.sh" 
state=present
  when: elasticsearch_purge_old_indices_node == "yes"


Error output:
TASK: [elasticsearch | cron job to purge old log indices] **************
fatal: [elasticsearch1] => One or more undefined variables: 'dict object' 
has no attribute 'address'
fatal: [elasticsearch2] => error while evaluating 
conditional: elasticsearch_purge_old_indices_node == "yes"
fatal: [elasticsearch3] => error while evaluating 
conditional: elasticsearch_purge_old_indices_node == "yes"


How do I force a task to run based on a host variable I've set?

Thanks!
