Hi guys,

I’m trying to use Ansible to provision DNS records in OpenStack using the os\_recordset module.

I’m running Ansible 2.2.0.0 installed from python pip on Ubuntu 16.04.

I have an A record setup already for this specific FQDN, but when I go to add an AAAA record alongside it, the following error come up:

task path: /home/ubuntu/work/playbooks/setup\_designate\_zone.yml:23  
Using module file /usr/local/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/ansible/modules/extras/cloud/openstack/os\_recordset.py

},  
“module\_name”: “os\_recordset”  
},  
“msg”: “Error updating recordset . (Inner Exception: u’’ is not a ‘ipv4’)”  
}

The Task that’s failing is:

- name: Setup AAAA entries  
delegate\_to: localhost  
os\_recordset:  
cloud: dev  
state: present  
zone: “.”  
name: “oc”  
recordset\_type: AAAA  
records: “{{ openstack.accessIPv6 }}”  
ttl: 3600

Any help would be great.

Thanks
