I am in the process of migrating to Ansible roles model and I have the 
following structure - 

*../roles/vms/tasks/main.yml*
---
# To Create VMs on the VMware vCenter Server
  - name: Creation of Windows 8.1 VMs
    vsphere_guest:
      vcenter_hostname: "name"
      guest: "{{ item }}"
      from_template: yes
      template_src: "templatename"
      validate_certs: no
      esxi:
        datacenter: dc
        hostname: hname
    with_items: "{{ vmname81 }}"

*../roles/vms/vars/main.yml*
---
vmname81:
  - Client1
  - Client2
  - Client3


vmname10:
  - Client4
  - Client5


*playbook.yml*
---
# To Create VMs on the VMware vCenter Server
- hosts: localhost
  name: Creation of Windows 8.1 VMs
  roles:
    - { role: vmcreation }

As you can see in the playbook, I am trying to create Windows 8.1 VMs and I 
am unable to figure out how to pass the *vmname81* in the roles for the 
creation of 8.1 VMs. I am also interested to know if this can be done in a 
better way.
