Encoding error while backup about 40ansible HOT 2 OPEN

Hello,
I have found the error cause.
There are utf-8 characters in some security objects.
So I fixed by importing "codecs" python module and using codecs.open function in backup function as below:
file = codecs.open(data['config_parameters']['filename'], 'w', 'utf-8')
My post is only for information and it is up to you to use it.
In my case, I will tell to my security officer to not use special character and add a checking routine to prevent it.
Regards.

Hi @coquinpa
thanks for your comments and sorry for the late reply. We haven't had much time to look into it during these days. Glad to read that you found the issue.
We will be more than happy to take it into account, actually feel free to create a PR if you want to.
Otherwise I'll incoporte the changes you propose in the next days.
If you don't mind I'll leave this open until I incorporate the fix you mention or I receive a PR with the change, whatever happens first.

Thanks!
