Hi Jonh,
I tried with this :
- hosts: all
gather_facts: false
connection: local
tasks:
- name: show notes
debug:
var: notes
- vmware_guest:
hostname: 10.112.100.60
username: root
password: password
uuid: 564d0c49-a688-b277-68b8-09848a0c4ca4
state: absent
but when I run this playbook I have this error messagee :
ERROR! conflicting action statements: hostname, vmware_guest
The error appears to have been in '/etc/ansible/new.yml': line 8, column 5,
but may
be elsewhere in the file depending on the exact syntax problem.
The offending line appears to be:
var: notes
- vmware_guest:
^ here
