This is the error->

➜  vmware-demos git:(main) ansible-navigator run vmware_visbility.yml --mode stdout
[WARNING]: provided hosts list is empty, only localhost is available. Note that the implicit localhost does not match 'all'

PLAY [VMware visbility] *******************************************************************************************************************************************************

The playbook is super simple:

  gather_facts: false
  tasks:
    - name: Set VCenter parameters
      ansible.builtin.include_vars: login_info.yml

    - name: Use info role
      ansible.builtin.import_role:
        name: cloud.vmware_ops.info
      vars:
        info_license: true
        info_storage: true
        info_appliance: true
        info_guest: true
        info_hostname: "{{ vcenter_hostname }}"
        info_username: "{{ vcenter_username }}"
