Thx for the assist, works now!

*Solution:*

  - name: activate eth0
    vmware_vm_shell:
      hostname: "{{ vsphere_host }}"
      username: "{{ vsphere_username }}"
      password: "{{ vsphere_password }}"
      validate_certs: "no"
      datacenter: "{{ datacenter_name }}"
      folder: "{{ to_infra }}"
      vm_id: "{{ nam }}"
      vm_username: "{{ common_user }}"
      vm_password: "{{ common_pw }}"
      vm_shell: "*/usr/bin/sudo*"
      vm_shell_args: "*ip *link set eth0 up > /tmp/debug.txt 2>&1"

Note, can be used to run any command with root-permissions on remote 
VMware-hosts, with no internet-connection setup!
