Hi All,

I am using the below code with Ansible 1.9 and works well:

- name: Gether Info  
local\_action: Infos.py host={{ hostname }} user={{ username }} password={{ mypassword }} vm\_name={{ myhostname }}

All the above variables coming from Ansible Vault file. I upgraded my Ansible version to 2.1 and it is not working. Can some one through light on the issue?

Thanks
