That's a kind of surprise when ilo\_addr is not defined in your playbook, isn't it?

You're using a variable that is not defined, while looping over the uri task.  
That must have come from somewhere.  
So... did you actually write it? Or perhaps copied part of something  
else and expected it to magically work.

How to declare that variable to resolve the issue?

Judging by its name, it isn't defined manually, but rather the result  
of some previous task (which we don't know anything about).
