Deleting EC2 instance and termination_list mystery

[Erik Steffl]

When not including termination_list parameter:

TASK: [Delete template API instance] ****************************************** 

failed: [localhost -> 127.0.0.1] => {"failed": true}

msg: termination_list needs to be a list of instances to terminate

FATAL: all hosts have already failed -- aborting

So I include termination_list and:

TASK: [Delete template API instance] ****************************************** 

failed: [localhost -> 127.0.0.1] => {"failed": true}

msg: unsupported parameter for module: termination_list

FATAL: all hosts have already failed -- aborting

Config is:

{

"name": "Delete template API instance",

"local_action": {

"module": "ec2",

"region": "us-east-1",

"state": "absent",

"wait": "yes",

"assign_public_ip": "no",

"count": 1,

"ebs_optimized": "no",

"image": "ami-f11ac69a",

"instance_tags": {

"Name": "{{ xaos_template_instance_name }}"

},

"instance_type": "t2.micro",

"key_name": "juju-dev",

"monitoring": "yes",

"vpc_subnet_id": "subnet-376d296e"

}

},

Any ideas how to delete instance? Specifically by Name (tag), we create instance in one play and want to remove them in another play.

Thanks!

This IS a signature.

it is the case of the error giving out an internal name, it should be
fixed in the module, but what you are missing in the module is the
instance_ids (which internally gets passed to the boto termination
list).
