I am looking for guidance to see if there is a way with ansible to
communicate with the CLI on a Storage System. Currently there is a module
for the HPE 3PAR storage system that interacts via the API but I have found
some limitations to the API that can be accomplished via running CLI
commands on the Storage System. I know there were Network CLI modules
created for similar scenarios with configuring network devices.
I can SSH into the Storage System and run commands via the 3PAR OS just
fine but Ansible can't connect to it. The 3PAR OS doesn't drop you into a
traditional shell similar to network devices which i believe is the issue.
Currently when I run Ansible against the Storage System I get the following
error:
fatal: [192.168.1.50]: UNREACHABLE! => {"changed": false, "msg":
"Authentication
or permission failure. In some cases, you may have been able to
authenticate and did not have permissions on the target directory. Consider
changing the remote tmp path in ansible.cfg to a path rooted in \"/tmp\".
Failed command was: ( umask 77 && mkdir -p \"` echo
~/.ansible/tmp/ansible-tmp-1537924411.79-161739042519359 `\" && echo

~/.ansible/tmp/ansible-tmp-1537924411.79-161739042519359 `\" ), exited with
result 1", "unreachable": true}
I am wondering if there is a way use Ansible to authenticate and execute a
generic command payload. I have tried the shell, raw, and command modules
but each with the similar error as above.
ssh [email protected] "showwsapi"
Hopefully this makes sense.
Any help or guidance would be appreciated.
