ibm.spectrum_virtualize.ibm_svc_manage_migration module – This module manages volume migration between clusters on IBM Spectrum Virtualize family storage systems
Note
This module is part of the ibm.spectrum_virtualize collection (version 2.0.0).
You might already have this collection installed if you are using the ansible package.
It is not included in ansible-core.
To check whether it is installed, run ansible-galaxy collection list.
To install it, use: ansible-galaxy collection install ibm.spectrum_virtualize.
To use it in a playbook, specify: ibm.spectrum_virtualize.ibm_svc_manage_migration.
Note
The ibm.spectrum_virtualize collection has been renamed to ibm.storage_virtualize and will eventually be removed from Ansible. The content of ibm.spectrum_virtualize will be replaced by redirects to ibm.storage_virtualize in Ansible 10. If you use content from ibm.spectrum_virtualize, please update FQCNs in your playbooks and roles! When creating new playbooks or roles, directly use content from ibm.storage_virtualize instead.
New in ibm.spectrum_virtualize 1.6.0
Synopsis
Ansible interface to manage the migration commands.
Parameters
Parameter |
Comments |
|---|---|
The hostname or management IP of the Spectrum Virtualize storage system. |
|
Domain for the Spectrum Virtualize storage system. Valid when hostname is used for the parameter clustername. |
|
Path of debug log file. |
|
Specifies the pool on which the volume has to be migrated. Valid only when type_of_migration=across_pools. |
|
REST API password for the Spectrum Virtualize storage system. The parameters username and password are required if not using token to authenticate a user on the local system. |
|
Name of the migration relationship. Required when state=initiate or state=switch. |
|
Specifies the name of the remote cluster. Required when state=initiate. |
|
REST API password for the partner Spectrum Virtualize storage system. The parameters remote_username and remote_password are required if not using remote_token to authenticate a user on the partner system. Valid when state=initiate. |
|
Specifies the pool on which the volume on Partner Spectrum Virtualize storage system should get created. Required when state=initiate. |
|
The authentication token to verify a user on the partner Spectrum Virtualize storage system. To generate a token, use the ibm_svc_auth module. Valid when state=initiate. |
|
REST API username for the partner Spectrum Virtualize storage system. The parameters remote_username and remote_password are required if not using remote_token to authenticate a user on the partner system. Valid when |
|
Validates certification for partner Spectrum Virtualize storage system. Valid when state=initiate. Choices:
|
|
Replicates the hosts mapped to a source volume on the source system, to the target system, and maps the hosts to the target volume. The user can use ibm_svc_host and ibm_svc_vol_map modules to create and map hosts to the target volume for an existing migration relationship. Valid when state=initiate. Choices:
|
|
Specifies the name of the existing source volume to be used in migration. Required when state=initiate or state=cleanup or type_of_migration=across_pools. |
|
Specifies the different states of the migration process when type_of_migration=across_clusters.
Choices:
|
|
Specifies the name of the volume to be created on the target system. Required when state=initiate. |
|
The authentication token to verify a user on the Spectrum Virtualize storage system. To generate a token, use the ibm_svc_auth module. |
|
Specifies the type of migration whether it is migration across pools or migration across clusters Choices:
|
|
REST API username for the Spectrum Virtualize storage system. The parameters username and password are required if not using token to authenticate a user on the local system. |
|
Validates certification. Choices:
|
Notes
Note
This module supports
check_mode.This module supports both volume migration across pools and volume migration across clusters.
In case, user does not specify type_of_migration, the module shall proceed with migration across clusters by default.
In case of type_of_migration=across_pools, the only parameters allowed are new_pool and source_volume along with cluster credentials.
