Adding Icinga Monitored Hosts via Ansible - Issues

[Stuart Evans]

Hi All,

I'm looking for some help with the Add Hosts roles in this repository https://github.com/Icinga/icinga2-ansible , whenever i try to add hosts to be monitored by Icinga I always get the below failure;

{
    "msg": "The task includes an option with an undefined variable. The error was: 'dict object' has no attribute 'ansible_fqdn'\n\nThe error appears to have been in '/var/lib/awx/projects/_6__icinga_monitoring/icinga2-ansible-add-hosts/tasks/icinga2_add_hosts.yml': line 2, column 3, but may\nbe elsewhere in the file depending on the exact syntax problem.\n\nThe offending line appears to be:\n\n---\n- name: Copy Host Definitions\n  ^ here\n\nexception type: <class 'ansible.errors.AnsibleUndefinedVariable'>\nexception: 'dict object' has no attribute 'ansible_fqdn'",
    "failed": true
}

For information, this is my setup;

Ansible AWX

ansible 2.4.1.0
  config file = /etc/ansible/ansible.cfg
  configured module search path = [u'/root/.ansible/plugins/modules', u'/usr/share/ansible/plugins/modules']
  ansible python module location = /usr/lib/python2.7/site-packages/ansible
  executable location = /usr/bin/ansible
  python version = 2.7.5 (default, Aug  4 2017, 00:39:18) [GCC 4.8.5 20150623 (Red Hat 4.8.5-16)]

I have 1 inventory defined with 2 groups, monitoring_servers and webservers - the monitoring server is the Centos Icinga Box and the webservers are Windows Servers. When running the playbook i always come across the undefined variable for the Icinga Box (in group monitoring_servers), cant seem to get away from it and cant see whats going wrong?  My playbook is as follows.

Any help would be appreciated..

Thanks!
