@Dick; I need more help please.
This is what I did but it is still failing.
- name: Add hosts
include_tasks: "{{ playbook_dir }}/gethosts.yml"
dest_ip: "{{ item.split('\t')[0] }}"
groups: dest_nodes
file_dets: "{{ item.split('\t')[1] }}"
ansible_host: localhost
ansible_connection: local
with_items: "{{ command_result.stdout_lines }}"
And below is my get_hosts.yml file
add_host:
name: {{ item }}
with_items: "{{ dest_ip.split(',') }}"
