FPolicy is a file access notification framework that enables an administrator to monitor file and directory access in storage configured for CIFS and NFS.
Requirements¶
The below requirements are needed on the host that executes this module.
Ansible 2.9

netapp-lib 2020.3.12 is strongly recommended as it provides better error reporting for connection issues.
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.
To enable http on the cluster you must run the following commands ‘set -privilege advanced;’ ‘system services web modify -http-enabled true;’
