ibm.storage_virtualize.ibm_svc_info module – This module gathers various information from the IBM Storage Virtualize family systems

Note

This module is part of the ibm.storage_virtualize collection (version 2.7.4).

You might already have this collection installed if you are using the ansible package. It is not included in ansible-core. To check whether it is installed, run ansible-galaxy collection list.

To install it, use: ansible-galaxy collection install ibm.storage_virtualize.

To use it in a playbook, specify: ibm.storage_virtualize.ibm_svc_info.

New in ibm.storage_virtualize 1.0.0

Synopsis

  • Gathers the list of specified IBM Storage Virtualize family system entities. These include the list of nodes, pools, volumes, hosts, host clusters, FC ports, iSCSI ports, target port FC, FC consistgrp, vdiskcopy, I/O groups, FC map, FC connectivity, NVMe fabric, array, and system.

Parameters
