I want to create two VMs with ansible but keep getting this error with the
with_items
Please I need help. I am very new to ansible.
ERROR! Syntax Error while loading YAML.
did not find expected '-' indicator
The error appears to be in '/home/ansible/ansible-demo/vm2_play.yml': line
56, column 5, but may
be elsewhere in the file depending on the exact syntax problem.
The offending line appears to be:
with_items:
^ here
This is my variable file:
esxi_host: 'vsecurity.localdomain'
VMWARE_HOST: '192.168.154.144'
VMWARE_USER: ' '
VMWARE_PASSWORD: ' '
vm_network: # vmxnet3
guest_netmask: '255.255.255.0'
guest_gateway: '192.168.154.2'
# IP of domaincontroller/dns
guest_dns_server1: '192.158.154.2'
servers:
- my_vm_03
- my_vm_04
and this is my playbook, I am using vmware_guest module.
