The error message really looks like you don't have "/opt/backup_test" on
your local system or possibly not writable by the account Ansible is using.
If you have Ansible 2.3 and you're just building a tar file, why not use
the "archive" module?
http://docs.ansible.com/ansible/latest/archive_module.html
- name: make backup using archive module
archive:
dest:"{{ansible_hostname}}_{{ansible_facts.date}}.tar.gz"
path: /opt/backup_test
format: gz
