Hi Jayme, here's my idea. I haven't tested it but I believe it should work. 1. Create a new task file (let's call it export_vm.yaml) and include two tasks in there: 1.1. First task uses ovirt_vm module (pretty much what you already have) to export VM 1.2. Second task uses wait_for <https://docs.ansible.com/ansible/latest/modules/wait_for_module.html> module (specifically its path parameter) to wait until the OVA file in /backup exists 2. Loop over those two tasks as explained here <https://ericsysmin.com/2019/06/20/how-to-loop-blocks-of-code-in-ansible/>.
Hope this helps.
