Hello experts,

Here's the inventory file:

# uswest: sandbox: UI
[sandbox_webtier_uswest]
<redacted>
#----------------------------------------

# uswest: sandbox: REST Layer
[sandbox_resttier_uswest]
<redacted>

# uswest: sandbox: Processing Layer: Zookeeper

# uswest: sandbox: Processing Layer Main
#----------------------------------------
[sandbox_processingtier_uswest:children]
sandbox_kafka_uswest

# uswest: sandbox: Storage Layer: Cassandra

<redacted>

# uswest: sandbox: Storage Layer: Elasticsearch
# ----------------------------------------------
[sandbox_es_uswest]
10.0.4.5

# uswest: sandbox: Storage Layer Main
# ------------------------------------
[sandbox_storagetier_uswest:children]
sandbox_cass_uswest

# uswest: sandbox: Main
# ----------------------
[uswest_sandbox:children]
sandbox_webtier_uswest
sandbox_resttier_uswest
sandbox_processingtier_uswest
sandbox_storagetier_uswest

Now, I have defined group_vars for "uswest_sandbox" group of groups in the 
group_vars folder
# group_vars/uswest_sandbox
---
registryurl: <redacted>
registry: <redacted>
registrySeparator: <redacted>"
registryUser:<redacted>
registryPass: <redacted>
registryEmail: <redacted>
userName:<redacted>

With this, when I run the ansible playboox, the group_vars/uswest_sandbox 
is not loaded/read.

Here's the yml file in /roles/common/tasks where I am referring the vars

*- name: "Perform docker login to registry running on sandbox-bastion node"*
*  shell: docker login --username={{ registryUser }} --password={{ 
registryPass }} --email={{ registryEmail }} {{ registryurl }}*

So, I would expect Anisble to look for the vars in the local vars folder 
i.e. roles/common/vars, and then look at top level directory i.e. 
group_vars/uswest_sandbox.yml
However ansible run gives the following error: 
*"One or more undefined variables: 'registryUser' is undefined"*


I might me off with my understanding here. Any help is appreciated.

*Ansible version:*
*ansible 1.9.1*
*  configured module search path = /opt/ansible_cradle/custom_modules*

Thanks
Satish
