api_username - / required |
The username to authenticate with the SANtricity Web Services Proxy or Embedded Web Services API. | |
criteria_drive_count - |
The number of disks to use for building the storage pool. The pool will be expanded if this number exceeds the number of disks already in place | |
criteria_drive_interface_type - |
|
The interface type to use when selecting drives for the storage pool (no value means all interface types will be considered) |
criteria_drive_min_size - |
The minimum individual drive size (in size_unit) to consider when choosing drives for the storage pool. | |
criteria_drive_require_fde - |
Whether full disk encryption ability is required for drives to be added to the storage pool | |
criteria_drive_type - |
|
The type of disk (hdd or ssd) to use when searching for candidates to use. |
criteria_min_usable_capacity - |
The minimum size of the storage pool (in size_unit). The pool will be expanded if this value exceeds itscurrent size. | |
criteria_size_unit - |
|
The unit used to interpret size parameters |
erase_secured_drives boolean |
|
Whether to erase secured disks before adding to storage pool |
name - / required |
The name of the storage pool to manage | |
raid_level - / required |

remove_volumes - |
Default: "no" |
Prior to removing a storage pool, delete all volumes in the pool. |
reserve_drive_count - |
Set the number of drives reserved by the storage pool for reconstruction operations. Only valide on raid disk pools. | |
secure_pool boolean |
|
Whether to convert to a secure storage pool. Will only work if all drives in the pool are security capable. |
ssid - / required |
The ID of the array to manage. This value must be unique for each array. | |

validate_certs boolean |
|
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_e_storage_system may be utilized for configuring the systems managed by a WSP instance.
Examples
- name: No disk groups
netapp_e_storagepool:
ssid: "{{ ssid }}"
name: "{{ item }}"
state: absent
api_url: "{{ netapp_api_url }}"
api_username: "{{ netapp_api_username }}"
api_password: "{{ netapp_api_password }}"
validate_certs: "{{ netapp_api_validate_certs }}"
Return Values
Common return values are documented here, the following are the fields unique to this module:
Key | Returned | Description |
---|---|---|
msg string |
success |
Success message
Sample: Json facts for the pool that was created. |
