Team, I have a task that is checking for mounts. I have fail condition working but i also need to report for pass condition when mounts are present.. what am i doing wrong?

        shell: "mount | grep sdd"
        register: lvp_mount
        ignore_errors: yes
        failed_when: False
        delegate_to: "{{ item }}"
        with_items: "{{ groups['kube-cpu-node'] }}"
      - name: "Report status of mounts"
        fail:
          msg: |
            Mounts sdd not found
            Output of `mount | grep sdd`:
            {{ lvp_mount.stdout }}
            {{ lvp_mount.stderr }}
        when: lvp_mount is failed
      - name: "Success Report status of mounts"
        fail:
          msg: |
            Mounts sdd found
            Output of `mount | grep sdd`:
            {{ lvp_mount.stdout }}
            {{ lvp_mount.stderr }}
        when: lvp_mount is succeeded

output:

Solution2 i tried: but I want it to pass

      - name: "Success Report status of mounts"
        fail:
          msg: |
            Mounts sdd found
            Output of `mount | grep sdd`
        when: lvp_mount is succeeded

Wednesday 27 November 2019  18:46:58 +0000 (0:00:00.056)       0:00:05.321 ****
fatal: [localhost]: FAILED! => {"changed": false, "msg": "Mounts sdd found\nOutput of `mount | grep sdd`:\n"}

I see this solution but not sure how to fit it in mine? Ansible Message Output based on task result

    Since you are registering results from a loop, each iteration will be stored in a list under `lvp_mount.results`. Try dumping the entire `lvp_mount` variable in a `debug` task to see what I mean. – Matt P Nov 27 '19 at 21:32

    I also think you might want to use `debug` rather than `fail` for your "is succeeded" task – Matt P Nov 27 '19 at 21:33
