Notes
Note
The E-Series Ansible modules require either an instance of the Web Services Proxy (WSP), to be available to manage the storage-system, or an E-Series storage-system that supports the Embedded Web Services API.
Embedded Web Services is currently available on the E2800, E5700, EF570, and newer hardware models.
netapp_eseries.santricity.netapp_e_storage_system may be utilized for configuring the systems managed by a WSP instance.
Examples
- name: Define or update an existing host named 'Host1'
netapp_e_host:
ssid: "1"
api_url: "10.113.1.101:8443"
api_username: admin
api_password: myPassword
name: "Host1"
state: present
host_type_index: Linux DM-MP
ports:
- type: 'iscsi'
label: 'PORT_1'
port: 'iqn.1996-04.de.suse:01:56f86f9bd1fe'
- type: 'fc'
label: 'FC_1'
port: '10:00:FF:7C:FF:FF:FF:01'
- type: 'fc'
label: 'FC_2'
port: '10:00:FF:7C:FF:FF:FF:00'
- name: Ensure a host named 'Host2' doesn't exist
netapp_e_host:
ssid: "1"
