Synopsis

  • Configure settings of an E-Series NVMe interface

Parameters

Parameter Choices/Defaults Comments

address

string

The IPv4 address to assign to the NVMe interface

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.

api_username

string / required

The username to authenticate with the SANtricity Web Services Proxy or Embedded Web Services API.

channel

integer

This option specifies the which NVMe controller channel to configure.

The list of choices is not necessarily comprehensive. It depends on the number of ports that are available in the system.

The numerical value represents the number of the channel (typically from left to right on the HIC), beginning with a value of 1.

config_method

string

  • dhcp

  • static

The configuration method type to use for this interface.

Only applicable when configuring RoCE

dhcp is mutually exclusive with address, subnet_mask, and gateway.

controller

string

  • A
  • B

The controller that owns the port you want to configure.

Controller names are presented alphabetically, with the first controller as A and the second as B.

gateway

string

The IPv4 gateway address to utilize for the interface.

Only applicable when configuring RoCE

Mutually exclusive with config_method=dhcp

mtu

integer

Default:

1500

The maximum transmission units (MTU), in bytes.

Only applicable when configuring RoCE

This allows you to configure a larger value for the MTU, in order to enable jumbo frames (any value > 1500).

Generally, it is necessary to have your host, switches, and other components not only support jumbo frames, but also have it configured properly. Therefore, unless you know what you're doing, it's best to leave this at the default.


aliases: max_frame_size

speed

string

Default:

"auto"

This is the ethernet port speed measured in Gb/s.

Value must be a supported speed or auto for automatically negotiating the speed with the port.

Only applicable when configuring RoCE

The configured ethernet port speed should match the speed capability of the SFP on the selected port.

ssid

string

Default:

1

The ID of the array to manage. This value must be unique for each array.

state

string

  • enabled

  • disabled

Whether or not the specified RoCE interface should be enabled.

Only applicable when configuring RoCE

subnet_mask

string

The subnet mask to utilize for the interface.

Only applicable when configuring RoCE

Mutually exclusive with config_method=dhcp

validate_certs

boolean

  • no
  • yes

Should https certificates be validated?



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

Return Values

Common return values are documented here, the following are the fields unique to this module:

Key Returned Description

msg

string

on success

Success message


Sample:

The interface settings have been updated.
