netapp.ontap.na_ontap_cluster_peer – NetApp ONTAP Manage Cluster peering

Note

This plugin is part of the netapp.ontap collection (version 20.12.0).

To install it use: ansible-galaxy collection install netapp.ontap.

To use it in a playbook, specify: netapp.ontap.na_ontap_cluster_peer.

New in version 2.7.0: of netapp.ontap

Synopsis

  • Create/Delete cluster peer relations on ONTAP

Requirements

The below requirements are needed on the host that executes this module.

  • A physical or virtual clustered Data ONTAP system. The modules support Data ONTAP 9.1 and onward.

  • REST support requires ONTAP 9.6 or later.

  • Ansible 2.6

  • Ansible 2.9 or later is strongly recommended as it enables the new collection delivery system.

  • Python2 netapp-lib (2017.10.30) or later. Install using ‘pip install netapp-lib’

  • Python3 netapp-lib (2018.11.13) or later. Install using ‘pip install netapp-lib’

  • netapp-lib 2020.3.12 is strongly recommended as it provides better error reporting for connection issues.

  • To enable http on the cluster you must run the following commands ‘set -privilege advanced;’ ‘system services web modify -http-enabled true;’

Parameters

passphrase
string
The arbitrary passphrase that matches the one given to the peer cluster.
password
string
Password for the specified user.

aliases: pass
source_cluster_name
string
The name of the source cluster name in the peer relation to be deleted.
source_intercluster_lifs
list / elements=string
added in 2.8.0 of netapp.ontap
List of intercluster addresses of the source cluster.
Used as peer-addresses in destination cluster.
All these intercluster lifs should belong to the source cluster.

aliases: source_intercluster_lif
state
string
    Choices:
  • present ←
  • absent
Whether the specified cluster peer should exist or not.
use_rest
string
Default:
"auto"
REST API if supported by the target system for all the resources and attributes the module requires. Otherwise will revert to ZAPI.
always -- will always use the REST API
never -- will always use the ZAPI
auto -- will try to use the REST Api
username
string
This can be a Cluster-scoped or SVM-scoped account, depending on whether a Cluster-level or SVM-level API is required.
For more information, please read the documentation https://mysupport.netapp.com/NOW/download/software/nmsdk/9.4/.
Two authentication methods are supported
1. basic authentication, using username and password,
2. SSL certificate authentication, using a ssl client cert file, and optionally a private key file.
To use a certificate, the certificate must have been installed in the ONTAP cluster, and cert authentication must have been enabled.

aliases: user
validate_certs
boolean
    Choices:
  • no
  • yes ←
If set to no, the SSL certificates will not be validated.
This should only set to False used on personally controlled sites using self-signed certificates.

Notes

Note

  • The modules prefixed with na\_ontap are built to support the ONTAP storage platform.
