The ceph_release variable is not being defined, which is why this failure is happening. Could you include your full configuration, playbook, inventory and full log. Thanks, Andrew
I think this upstream PR should address the problem. We really shouldn't be doing version checks in ceph-validate anyway. If you do not run ceph-defaults and pass ceph_stable_release these will never pass anyway in ceph-validate. https://github.com/ceph/ceph-ansible/pull/3205
