I'm trying to figure out how to pass statement that will match multiple 
hostnames instead of just one.  I know how to do it with a group in the 
hosts file, but I need it to be something I set in the defaults part of the 
role.  I'm sure sure the answer is really easy but I'm just getting used to 
Jinja.   Here's my example...

*hosts file:*
[group1]
system1
system2
system3

roles/fubar/templates/mytest.j2

{% if inventory_hostname == "server1" %}
This is a test
{% endif %}

This works... but what if I want this line on server1 and server3?  
Preferably something a role assigned in defaults/main.yml file like:

ImportantServers: [ 'server1' , 'server3' ]

{% if inventory_hostname in groups[ 'ImportantServers'] %}
This is a test
{% endif %}

That doesn't work however.  I think it's because the groups is referring to 
the hosts file and not looking at the defaults.   If someone could tell me 
what I'm doing wrong and not shame me too badly that would be great.
