Synopsis

• Configure the E-Series management interfaces

Parameters

Parameter	Choices/Defaults	Comments
address string		The IPv4 address to assign to the interface. Should be specified in xx.xx.xx.xx form. Mutually exclusive with config_method=dhcp
api_password string / required		The password to authenticate with the SANtricity Web Services Proxy or Embedded Web Services API.
api_url string / required		The url to the SANtricity Web Services Proxy or Embedded Web Services API. Example https://prod-1.wahoo.acme.com:8443/devmgr/v2
api_username string / required		The username to authenticate with the SANtricity Web Services Proxy or Embedded Web Services API.
config_method string	Choices: dhcp static	The configuration method type to use for network interface ports. dhcp is mutually exclusive with address, subnet_mask, and gateway.
controller string / required	Choices: A B	The controller that owns the port you want to configure. Controller names are represented alphabetically, with the first controller as A, the second as B, and so on. Current hardware models have either 1 or 2 available controllers, but that is not a guaranteed hard limitation and could change in the future.
dns_address string		Primary IPv4 or IPv6 DNS server address
dns_address_backup string		Secondary IPv4 or IPv6 DNS server address
dns_config_method string	Choices: dhcp static	The configuration method type to use for DNS services. dhcp is mutually exclusive with dns_address, and dns_address_backup.
gateway string		The IPv4 gateway address to utilize for the interface. Should be specified in xx.xx.xx.xx form. Mutually exclusive with config_method=dhcp
ntp_address string		Primary IPv4, IPv6, or FQDN NTP server address
ntp_address_backup string		Secondary IPv4, IPv6, or FQDN NTP server address
ntp_config_method string	Choices: disabled dhcp static	The configuration method type to use for NTP services. disable is mutually exclusive with ntp_address and ntp_address_backup. dhcp is mutually exclusive with ntp_address and ntp_address_backup.
port integer / required		The ethernet port configuration to modify. The channel represents the port number left to right on the controller, beginning with 1.
ssh boolean	Choices: no yes	Enable ssh access to the controller for debug purposes. This is a controller-level setting. rlogin/telnet will be enabled for ancient equipment where ssh is not available.
ssid string	Default: 1	The ID of the array to manage. This value must be unique for each array.
state string	Choices: enabled ← disabled	Enable or disable IPv4 network interface configuration. Either IPv4 or IPv6 must be enabled otherwise error will occur.
subnet_mask string		The subnet mask to utilize for the interface. Should be specified in xx.xx.xx.xx form. Mutually exclusive with config_method=dhcp
validate_certs boolean	Choices: no yes ←	Should https certificates be validated?

Notes

Note

• Check mode is supported.

• It is highly recommended to have a minimum of one up management port on each controller.

• When using SANtricity Web Services Proxy, use na_santricity_storage_system to update management paths. This is required because of a known issue and will be addressed in the proxy version 4.1. After the resolution the management ports should automatically be updated.

• The interface settings are applied synchronously, but changes to the interface itself (receiving a new IP address via dhcp, etc), can take seconds or minutes longer to take effect.

• 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_e_storage_system may be utilized for configuring the systems managed by a WSP instance.
