Oh Boy, I'm such a fool. Variable names must not begin with a digit.
Instead they need to begin with a character.
After this mistake was fixed my playbook runs as expected.

Good morning,
I'm getting the following Error when running my playbook:
TASK [patch_rhel : Install Red Hat Security Advisory (RHSA)]
*******************
fatal: [rhel-t0.hrz.uni-bielefeld.de]: FAILED! => {"failed": true, "msg": "{{
2016_1_Set }}: template error while templating string: unexpected char u'_'
at 7. String: {{ 2016_1_Set }}"}
I would be very happy if someone could help me to figure out what I'm doing
wrong here.
Here are some information about my environment:
[2016.10.11 09:06:25] /data/ansible
root@ansible-pctrl01>cat /etc/redhat-release
Red Hat Enterprise Linux Server release 7.2 (Maipo)
[2016.10.11 09:07:57] /data/ansible
root@ansible-pctrl01>uname -r
3.10.0-327.36.1.el7.x86_64
[2016.10.11 09:08:03] /data/ansible
root@ansible-pctrl01>ansible --version
ansible 2.1.1.0
config file = /etc/ansible/ansible.cfg
configured module search path = Default w/o overrides
The playbook I'm trying to run:
root@ansible-pctrl01>cat patch_rhel.yml
---
- hosts: all
tasks:
- name: Group by OS
group_by: key=os_{{ ansible_distribution }}
changed_when: False
- hosts: os_RedHat
roles:
- patch_rhel
Here is the directory structure of my role followed by the contents of the
tasks and vars main.yml:
roles/patch_rhel/
|-- [joerg 4.0K] tasks

#
rhsa_to_install: "{{ 2016_10_Set }}"
Things I tried so far were to remove the '_' but then I got the same error
message complaining with the next character in line. Removing the character
right before the one mentioned in the error I'm running into the same error
as well.
To get my playbook up and running I changed *roles/patch_rhel/vars/mail.yml*
to:
cat roles/patch_rhel/vars/main.yml

2016_09_27: RHSA-2016:1940
2016_09_28: RHSA-2016:1944
2016_09_30: RHEA-2016:1982
#
#2016_10_Set: "{{ 2016_09_27 }},{{ 2016_09_28 }},{{ 2016_09_30 }}"
#
#rhsa_to_install: "{{ 2016_10_Set }}"
rhsa_to_install: RHSA-2016:1940,RHSA-2016:1944,RHEA-2016:1982
Now my playbook runs without any failures. But I like to use the first
version to be more flexible in applying my advisory.
Thank you in advance for your ideas and support on this. Looking forwared
to reading from you.
Regards,
Joerg
