Hm.
I haven't used command much myself, but I think you have to give it
space-delimited commands.
Could it be that you are actually telling Ansible to execute a command
called "inventoryctl.py host -U -H AMTEST1 -g LNZ", rather than a command
called "inventoryctl.py" with arguments "host", "-U', "-H", "AMTEST1",
"-g", and "LNZ" ?!?
Not sure how to fix that.
Regards, K.
