@rht-rkaruppu : All module now validate SSL certificates by default, Please look at the SSL Validation for more information. if you wish to disable SSL validation please add validate_certs module argument to False

[rht-rkaruppu]

Thanks for the quick response..! It works after adding Validate_certs: False in the play.

@rht-rkaruppu : Thanks for the update, I'm now closing this issue as the playbooks are working fine after the playbook update.
