I think i found the solution.
i have to set the variable in vars:
vars:
file_content: "{{ lookup('file', '/tmp/dhcpinfo') }}"
redundancynode: "{{file_content.redundancynode}}"
now it is working by using:
when: inventory_hostname == redundancynode
You probably meant this by setting the variable.
thank you very much :)
