Description of my problem: Ansible code should be triggered during an 
interface flapping with cisco nessus device. It should fetch the time of 
nessus device(show clock) and try to pull the past 15 minutes from the 
"show logging" output of nessus device.

Ansible experts, I need to help to manipulate the time to get past 15 
minutes from show logging. Below s the code written so far.

cat interfaceflapping.yml


--- - name: Cisco NXOS hosts: all connection: network_cli gather_facts: 
false vars: - cmdlist: sh clock - ansible_python_interpreter: 
/usr/bin/python3 - ansible_network_os: nxos tasks: - name: Execute command 
nxos_command: commands: "{{ cmdlist }}" register: output - set_fact: arr: 
"{{ output.stdout_lines[0][1].split() }}" - debug: msg: "{{ arr[0] }}" - 
name: print variable set_fact: my_string_var: "{{ arr[0].split(':') | 
default('') }}" - debug: msg: "{{my_string_var}}" - name: Execute command 
nxos_command: commands: sh logging | include 2/3 register: output1 - debug: 
msg: "{{ output1 }}" when: output1.stdout is search(my_string_var) 
```ansible ================== output as below [LABPC@lab-jump-host dow]$
