Hi,

I'm trying to get a list of ELBs to then use that to add new instances that 
I create to these ELBs, but am not successful - the ec2_elbs is always 
empty when checking. I'm currently trying the basic example that's meant to 
add new instances to a ELB, however, I try to do this without knowing the 
ELBs name(s). Is that even possible ? If so, it'd be great if there was a 
link to a doc or blog or something on who to get that list of ELBs ? 

Example: 


- hosts: tag_Name_Demo:&tag_Svc_Apache
  gather_facts: true
  user: ec2-user

 # basic pre_task and post_task example
 pre_tasks:
 - name: Gathering ec2 facts
   action: ec2_facts

 - name: Instance De-register
   local_action:
     module: ec2_elb
     region: eu-west-1
     instance_id: "{{ ansible_ec2_instance_id }}"
     state: 'absent'


tasks:

 - name: install httpd
   sudo: yes
   yum: name=httpd state=present

 - name: ensure httpd is running
   sudo: yes
   service: name=httpd state=started

 - name: Check NTP service
   sudo: yes
   service: name=ntpd state=started


post_tasks:
 - debug: msg="{{ item }}"
   with_items: ec2_elbs

 - name: Instance Register
   local_action:
     module: ec2_elb
     region: eu-west-1
     instance_id: "{{ ansible_ec2_instance_id }}"
     ec2_elbs: "{{ item }}"
     state: 'present'
     wait: yes
     ignore_errors: yes
   with_items: ec2_elbs





The output i get :

Maybe I'm missing the obvious .. the creation of the ELBs is done in a 
separate play as I want to be able to run the two plays, create environment 
and create instances, separately. But maybe I can't do that, so your advice 
would be very useful :) !

Thanks!
Alex
