ensuring a delay in an ansible with_sequence loop

I've the following handler that is invoked correctly, however, all the sequences appear to be run in quick succession. I'd like to run one by one with a specified delay. will this work?



- name: 'restart process_server_x_instance_y'
shell: '/bin/restarter serverx_instance_{{item}}'
ignore_errors: yes
delay: 5
with_sequence: count={{ number_of_instances|length }}


is this enough to pause 5secs after restarting instance_1,
then 5 secs after instance_2
etc?

          Use loop_control - pause:



          - name: 'restart process_server_x_instance_y'
          shell: '/bin/restarter serverx_instance_{{item}}'
          ignore_errors: yes
          with_sequence: count={{ number_of_instances|length }}
