Hey Guys,

I have the exact same issue where I need to find the drive that does not 
have any partitions on it.

so I have the exact same output from ansible_devices but I can't figure out 
how I load the output into ansible so I can run the filter on it

basically i need an output like /dev/sdb  or /dev/sdb or whatever the 
actual device name is that does not have partitions on it so I can then use 
that value in a subsequent - command: /usr/sbin//fdisk -l <device> for 
example - command: /usr/sbin/fdisk -l /dev/sdb

any help will be much appreciated

Thanks
