The simplest way would be add the vlans and portgroup names as a list in
vars
Then loop through them using with_items
Like this
vlans:
- portgroup_name: vlan 1
vlan_id: 1
- portgroup_name: vlan 2
vlan_id: 2
- portgroup_name: vlan 3
vlan_id: 3
- name: create_vss_vlan_PGs
vmware_portgroup:
hostname: '{{ vcenter_hostname }}'
username: '{{ vcenter_username }}'
password: '{{ vcenter_password }}'
cluster_name: '{{ cluster_name }}'
switch_name: '{{ vswitch_name }}'
portgroup_name: '{{ item.portgroup_name }}'
vlan_id: '{{ item.vlan_id }}'
delegate_to: localhost
with_items: '{{ vlans }}'
