Get service tool error when trying to install vmware tools - vmware

Question

I am trying to install vmware tools on an EXSi host. This is the code I have to do it.
---
- hosts: my-host
tasks:
- name: Install VMware tools
yum: pkg="open-vm-tools" state=present
when: ansible_os_family == "RedHat"
- name: Enabling and starting -> vmtoolsd
service: name=vmtoolsd enabled=yes state=started
This is the error I get after I run the code.
PLAY [my-host]
TASK [setup]
******************************************************************* ok: [myhost.com]
TASK [Install VMware tools]
**************************************************** skipping: [myhost.com]
TASK [Enabling and starting -> vmtoolsd]
*************************************** fatal: [myhost.com]: FAILED! => {"changed": false,
"failed": true, "msg": "get_service_tools not implemented on target
platform"}
NO MORE HOSTS LEFT
************************************************************* [WARNING]: Could not create retry file 'vmwaretools.retry'.
[Errno 2] No such file or directory: ''
PLAY RECAP
********************************************************************* myhost.com : ok=1 changed=0 unreachable=0
failed=1
This is the host file i am using.
[my-host]
myhost.com ansible_ssh_pass=mypw
ansible_ssh_user=root
How can I implement get_service_tools on my host like the error message points out? I am fairly new to all of this so please pardon the naiveté. Thanks

As in the previous question, you need to execute tasks on your guest hosts, not on your host esxi.
