To install it, use: ansible-galaxy collection install purestorage.flashblade.

New in version 1.0.0: of purestorage.flashblade

Synopsis

  • Create, modify or erase directory services configurations. There is no facility to SSL certificates at this time. Use the FlashBlade GUI for this additional configuration work.
  • If updating a directory service and i(bind_password) is provided this will always cause a change, even if the password given isn’t different from the current. This makes this part of the module non-idempotent..
