purefa_info – Collect information from Pure Storage FlashArray

New in version 2.9.

Synopsis

  • Collect information from a Pure Storage Flasharray running the Purity//FA operating system. By default, the module will collect basic information including hosts, host groups, protection groups and volume counts. Additional information can be collected based on the configured set of arguments.

Requirements

The below requirements are needed on the host that executes this module.

  • python >= 2.7
  • purestorage

Parameters

Parameter Choices/Defaults Comments
api_token
string / required
FlashArray API token for admin privileged user.
fa_url
string / required
FlashArray management IPv4 address or Hostname.
gather_subset
list
Default:
"minimum"
When supplied, this argument will define the information to be collected. Possible values for this include all, minimum, config, performance, capacity, network, subnet, interfaces, hgroups, pgroups, hosts, admins, volumes, snapshots, pods, vgroups, offload, apps, arrays, certs and kmip.

Notes

Note

  • This module requires the purestorage Python library
  • You must set PUREFA_URL and PUREFA_API environment variables if fa_url and api_token arguments are not passed to the module directly

  register: array_info
- name: show default information
  debug:
    msg: "{{ array_info['purefa_info']['default'] }}"

- name: collect configuration and capacity information
  purefa_info:
    gather_subset:
      - config
    fa_url: 10.10.10.2
    api_token: e31060a7-21fc-e277-6240-25983c6c4592
  register: array_info
- name: show configuration information
  debug:
    msg: "{{ array_info['purefa_info']['config'] }}"

- name: collect all information
  purefa_info:
    gather_subset:
      - all
    fa_url: 10.10.10.2
    api_token: e31060a7-21fc-e277-6240-25983c6c4592
- name: show all information
  debug:
    msg: "{{ array_info['purefa_info'] }}"
