Ansible playbook to determine OS release












1















I'm simply trying to check the version of ubuntu on all my servers. Based on this question I see that ansible has a ansible_distribution_version but this playbook does not show how I would simply just have it print out the ubuntu version, ie ubuntu 14.04, 16.04, etc
