Notes

Note

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_eseries.santricity.netapp_e_storage_system may be utilized for configuring the systems managed by a WSP instance.

Examples

- name: Define or update an existing host named "Host1"
  na_santricity_host:
    ssid: "1"
    api_url: "https://192.168.1.100:8443/devmgr/v2"
    api_username: "admin"
    api_password: "adminpass"
    validate_certs: true
    name: "Host1"
    state: present
    host_type_index: Linux DM-MP
    ports:
      - type: "iscsi"
        label: "PORT_1"
        port: "iqn.1996-04.de.suse:01:56f86f9bd1fe"
      - type: "fc"
        label: "FC_1"
        port: "10:00:FF:7C:FF:FF:FF:01"
      - type: "fc"
        label: "FC_2"
        port: "10:00:FF:7C:FF:FF:FF:00"

- name: Ensure a host named "Host2" doesn"t exist
  na_santricity_host:
    ssid: "1"
    api_url: "https://192.168.1.100:8443/devmgr/v2"
    api_username: "admin"
    api_password: "adminpass"
    validate_certs: true
    name: "Host2"
    state: absent
