The below requirements are needed on the host that executes this module.
- Ansible 2.9
- Python3 netapp-lib (2018.11.13) or later. Install using ‘pip install netapp-lib’
- netapp-lib 2020.3.12 is strongly recommended as it provides better error reporting for connection issues.
- A physical or virtual clustered Data ONTAP system. The modules support Data ONTAP 9.1 and onward.
- REST support requires ONTAP 9.6 or later.

hostname string / required | The hostname or IP address of the ONTAP instance. | |
http_port integer | Override the default port (80 or 443) with this port | |
https boolean |
| Enable and disable https. Ignored when using REST as only https is supported. Ignored when using SSL certificate authentication as it requires SSL. |
key_filepath string added in 20.6.0 of netapp.ontap | path to SSL client key file. | |
ontapi integer | The ontap api version to use | |
password string | Password for the specified user. aliases: pass | |
use_rest string | Default: "auto" | REST API if supported by the target system for all the resources and attributes the module requires. Otherwise will revert to ZAPI. always -- will always use the REST API never -- will always use the ZAPI auto -- will try to use the REST Api |
username string | 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://mysupport.netapp.com/NOW/download/software/nmsdk/9.4/. Two authentication methods are supported 1. basic authentication, using username and password, 2. SSL certificate authentication, using a ssl client cert file, and optionally a private key file. To use a certificate, the certificate must have been installed in the ONTAP cluster, and cert authentication must have been enabled. aliases: user | |
validate_certs boolean |
| If set to no , the SSL certificates will not be validated.This should only set to False used on personally controlled sites using self-signed certificates. |
vserver string | if provided, forces vserver tunneling. username identifies a cluster admin account. | |
