Is this an Ansible issue?

Anyway, the commonest reason for things like this is that the instance cannot talk to the Internet.

Check that the instance either has a public address in a subnet routing over an IGW, or is in a subnet that is routing over a NAT gateway.

Regards, K.

agreed. Does not look like an ansible issue. Try manually and see what you get. I would verify the RHN/Satellite connections.
