Hi Juerg,

Yes, the host is part of my Inventory.
I tried it and set delegate_to to the inventory hostname, which woks fine. 

But I've multiple inventories, and all hosts of each inventory needs this 
delegated_to task. How can I handle it for all other inventories, because I 
can't add this host to all inventories?
Have you an idea?

Regards,
Raphael
