[SOLVED] Ansible: how to install multiple rpm but one per os?

Issue

I want to install multiple rpm, one is for Fedora servers, another one for Centos server. I have did this playbook file, but is wrong

- name: Copy rpm file to server
  hosts: fedora
  copy:
     src: /tmp/pam_krb5-2.4.8-6.fc31.x86_64.rpm
     dest: /tmp/pam_krb5-2.4.8-6.fc31.x86_64.rpm

- name: Install package.
  hosts: fedora
  yum:
     name: /tmp/pam_krb5-2.4.8-6.fc31.x86_64.rpm
     state: present

- name: Copy another rpm file to server
  hosts: centos
  copy:
     src: /tmp/pam_krb5-2.4.8-6.el8.x86_64.rpm
     dest: /tmp/pam_krb5-2.4.8-6.el8.x86_64.rpm

- name: Install another package.
  hosts: centos
  yum:
     name: /tmp/pam_krb5-2.4.8-6.el8.x86_64.rpm
     state: present

Solution

I have solved with a little different syntax

- name: Transfer and install a rpm for Centos server
  hosts: centos
  become_user: root
  tasks:
     - name: Copy another rpm file to server
       copy: src=/tmp/pam_krb5-2.4.8-6.el8.x86_64.rpm dest=/tmp/pam_krb5-2.4.8-6.el8.x86_64.rpm
     - name: Install the rpm
       command: dnf -y localinstall /tmp/pam_krb5-2.4.8-6.el8.x86_64.rpm

- name: Transfer and install a rpm for Fedora server
  hosts: fedora
  become_user: root
  tasks:
     - name: Copy another rpm file to server
       copy: src=/tmp/pam_krb5-2.4.8-6.fc31.x86_64.rpm dest=/tmp/pam_krb5-2.4.8-6.fc31.x86_64.rpm
     - name: Install the rpm
       command: dnf -y localinstall /tmp/pam_krb5-2.4.8-6.fc31.x86_64.rpm
