Parameters

Parameter

Comments

api_token

string

FlashArray API token for admin privileged user.

client_id

string

added in purestorage.flasharray 1.43.0

ID of the API Client that issues the identity token.

Used with private_key_file.

context

string

added in purestorage.flasharray 1.37.0

Name of fleet member on which to perform the ntp operation.

This requires the array receiving the request is a member of a fleet and the context name to be a member of the same fleet.

Default: ""

disable_warnings

boolean

added in purestorage.flasharray 1.29.0

Disable insecure certificate warnings in debug logs

Choices:

  • false ← (default)

  • true

fa_url

string

FlashArray management IPv4 address or Hostname.

id_token

string

added in purestorage.flasharray 1.43.0

A pre-signed JWT to authenticate with, as an alternative to api_token.

The token is exchanged by the array for a short-lived access token.

Requires a matching API Client to be registered on the array (see purestorage.flasharray.purefa_apiclient).

issuer

string

added in purestorage.flasharray 1.43.0

The API Client’s trusted identity issuer registered on the array.

Used with private_key_file.

key_id

string

added in purestorage.flasharray 1.43.0

Key ID of the API Client that issues the identity token.

Used with private_key_file.

ntp_key

string

added in purestorage.flasharray 1.22.0

The NTP symmetric key to be used for NTP authentication.

If it is an ASCII string, it cannot contain the character “#” and cannot be longer than 20 characters.

If it is a hex-encoded string, it cannot be longer than 64 characters.

Setting this parameter is not idempotent.

ntp_servers

list / elements=string

A list of up to 4 alternate NTP servers. These may include IPv4, IPv6 or FQDNs. Invalid IP addresses will cause the module to fail. No validation is performed for FQDNs.

If more than 4 servers are provided, only the first 4 unique nameservers will be used.

if no servers are given a default of 0.pool.ntp.org will be used.

private_key_file

string

added in purestorage.flasharray 1.43.0

Path to the PEM RSA private key used to sign an identity token, as an alternative to api_token.

Requires client_id, key_id, issuer and username.

private_key_password

string

added in purestorage.flasharray 1.43.0

Password protecting private_key_file, if encrypted.

state

string

Create, delete or test NTP servers configuration

Choices:

  • "absent"

  • "present" ← (default)

  • "test"

username

string

added in purestorage.flasharray 1.43.0

Username the issued token should be granted to.

Must be a valid user on the array. Used with private_key_file.

Notes

Note

  • This module requires the purestorage and py-pure-client Python libraries.

  • Additional Python libraries may be required for specific modules.

  • You must set PUREFA_URL and PUREFA_API environment variables if fa_url and api_token arguments are not passed to the module directly.

  • Token-based authentication (id_token, or private_key_file with client_id, key_id, issuer and username) may be used as an alternative to api_token, and requires a matching API Client registered on the array via purestorage.flasharray.purefa_apiclient.
