Parameters

Parameter	Choices/Defaults	Comments
api_password string / required		The password to authenticate with the SANtricity WebServices Proxy or embedded REST API.
api_url string / required		The url to the SANtricity WebServices Proxy or embedded REST API, for example `https://prod-1.wahoo.acme.com/devmgr/v2`.
api_username string / required		The username to authenticate with the SANtricity WebServices Proxy or embedded REST API.
create_copy_pair_if_does_not_exist boolean	Choices: no yes ←	Defines if a copy pair will be created if it does not exist. If set to True destination_volume_id and source_volume_id are required.
destination_volume_id -		The id of the volume copy destination. If used, must be paired with source_volume_id Mutually exclusive with volume_copy_pair_id, and search_volume_id
search_volume_id -		Searches for all valid potential target and source volumes that could be used in a copy_pair Mutually exclusive with volume_copy_pair_id, destination_volume_id and source_volume_id
source_volume_id -		The id of the volume copy source. If used, must be paired with destination_volume_id Mutually exclusive with volume_copy_pair_id, and search_volume_id
ssid string	Default: 1	The ID of the array to manage. This value must be unique for each array.
start_stop_copy -		starts a re-copy or stops a copy in progress Note: If you stop the initial file copy before it it done the copy pair will be destroyed Requires volume_copy_pair_id
state - / required	Choices: present absent	Whether the specified volume copy pair should exist or not.
validate_certs boolean	Choices: no yes ←	Should https certificates be validated?
volume_copy_pair_id -		The id of a given volume copy pair Mutually exclusive with destination_volume_id, source_volume_id, and search_volume_id Can use to delete or check presence of volume pairs Must specify this or (destination_volume_id and source_volume_id)

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.
