New in version 2.3.

Synopsis

  • Create or destroy svm on NetApp cDOT

Requirements (on host that executes module)

  • A physical or virtual clustered Data ONTAP system. The modules were developed with Clustered Data ONTAP 8.3
  • Ansible 2.2
  • netapp-lib (2015.9.25). Install using ‘pip install netapp-lib’

Options

parameter required default choices comments
hostname
 yes

root_volume_aggregate
 no
The aggregate on which the root volume will be created.

root_volume_security_style
 no
  • unix
  • ntfs
  • mixed
  • unified
Security Style of the root volume.
When specified as part of the vserver-create, this field represents the security style for the Vserver root volume.
When specified as part of vserver-get-iter call, this will return the list of matching Vservers.
Possible values are 'unix', 'ntfs', 'mixed'.
The 'unified' security style, which applies only to Infinite Volumes, cannot be applied to a Vserver's root volume.
Valid options are "unix" for NFS, "ntfs" for CIFS, "mixed" for Mixed, "unified" for Unified.
Required when state=present
state
 yes
  • present
  • absent
Whether the specified SVM should exist or not.

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://goo.gl/BRu78Z.

Examples

- name: Create SVM
  na_cdot_svm:
