Ansible - create limitless amount of instances from one ami

[Jaspis Praha]

Hi,

I created and configured my instance and I woud like to create thousands of the same instances from the original one. I manualy created an image (ami) from my original instance and I would like to use following playbook which should fro testing purposes create only 2 additional instances (requirments met: boto, exported access and secret keys):

---

- hosts: localhost

  connection: local

  gather_facts: True

  tasks:

       -name: create instances from ami

       ec2:

       instance_type: t2.micro

       image: ami-xxxxxxxx

       wait: yes

       group: xxxxxxxxxxx

       count: 2

       assign_public_ip: no

I am running this code form the original instance, and as a result I got nothing: no errors, no actions, just this:

$ansible-playbook ec2.yml -vvvv
