Here is a code snippet which will test the reach-ability of instances or target nodes via ansible playbook

 code:

Output for the above yml file would be as below:

Hope this helps to write simple playbook which will ping servers based on a list. Another enhancement that can be done here is read a list of hosts to ping from a csv and use this YML to ping test those servers

Happy Ansible !!!
