I think bin/openshift-installer is a typo and should be the default bin/openshift-install instead.

  vars:
    installer: bin/openshift-install

You are right. I made this mistake early in the process when I was building the installer, and gave it the wrong name.

Anyhow these days the installer will upload the RHCOS image to your RHV cluster, so this ansible is not needed anymore.

Did you get here from some documentation?

Yes, I got here from the step #2 of the documentation at https://github.com/openshift/installer/blob/master/docs/user/ovirt/install_ipi.md
