Problem in nodelocaldns configuration template when using ipv6 address #13078

What happened?

Hi! In an ipv6-only cluster, nodelocaldns_ip must be changed to an ipv6 address. This causes the nodelocaldns container to launch error

2026/02/25 11:04:26 [INFO] Starting node-cache image: 1.25.0
2026/02/25 11:04:26 [INFO] Using Corefile /etc/coredns/Corefile

plugin/health: address fd00:1:2:3::10:9254: too many colons in address

What did you expect to happen?

The nodelocaldns container is running successfully when using an ipv6 address in nodelocaldns_ip.

How can we reproduce it (as minimally and precisely as possible)?

Assign an ipv6 address to nodelocalds_ip, apply the changes, restart the nodelocaldns container.

Command used to invoke ansible

ansible-playbook -vD -i inventory site.yml -l k8s_dev_05 --extra-vars '{"k8s_cluster_deploy": true}' -t "nodelocaldns"

Output of ansible run

The output of the command in this case has no value, in my opinion.

Anything else we need to know

Workround

health {% if nodelocaldns_ip is ansible.utils.ipv6_address %}{{ '[' + nodelocaldns_ip + ']' }}{% else %}{{ nodelocaldns_ip }}{% endif %}:9254

in

health {{ nodelocaldns_ip }}:{{ nodelocaldns_health_port }}
