[ansible-project] Automating firmware upgrades on Dell Networking 7048P Switches

['Nathan' via Ansible Project]

Hello all,

I currently have 100 Dell Networking 7048P Switches that will need to be 
upgraded to the latest firmware and was hoping for some assistance on 
finding either an existing script or creating one for the Dell series 
switches.

I am relatively new to Ansible and keen to learn so any guidance would be 
greatly appreciated.


Kind Regards,
Nathan

Re: [ansible-project] skip_unreachable ?

[Adam E]

thanks for the reply Brian.  Yes, it sounds like clear_host_errors i think 
will be too big of a hammer, I just want to ignore unreachable.

I'll have to figure something else out then, have a couple other scenarios 
in mind anyways, gonna also look at 
 something like  https://github.com/openstack/ara to have better 
logging/reporting on playbook runs so I can more easily find the failed 
hosts and rerun.

ultimately just looking for a nice clean way to monitor and re-run failed 
executions, as well as easily distinguish things like connection failures 
vs actual failures where you know that running it again when the connection 
is up will work.   I don't find AWX gives me a good enough view into this 
and am looking for a better overall strategy.

Re: [ansible-project] skip_unreachable ?

[Brian Coca]

So what you are asking would be the 'default' way ansible operates, it
removes 'unreachable' hosts from the rest of the play and then
continues with the rest of the hosts.
> - any future tasks in the play against that host will not be run (no point as 
> they will all fail as host unreachable).
  this is the default
> - the playbook will continue run all tasks against the other hosts that are

   also the default
> - the playbook run will report success (return code = 0)
  this is not the default, but you can have a `meta:
clear_host_errors` as your last task .. but this might be too big of a
hammer.

There are some cases in which the above is not true, for example,
using serial, if all hosts in a 'serial batch' fail (unreachable
counts) then the whole play fails, you also have max_fail_percentage
to manage how many failures you tolerate.

Im unclear on what you want, but `when` executes PER loop iteration,
so you can check `item` and skip that iteration depending on the
condition you want.

[ansible-project] Exclude match from with_items

[John Harmon]

How might I go about excluding one item found under with_items?

For example, assume the following:
ok: [mytestserver] => {
"aduser": {
"account_locked": false,
"attempts": 1,
"changed": false,
"city": "Spanish Fork",
"company": "My Test Company",
"country": "US",
"description": "Regular User",
"distinguished_name": "CN=Gomer 
Pyle,OU=Administration,DC=MyTestCo,DC=com",
"email": "gp...@mytestco.com",
"enabled": true,
"failed": false,
"firstname": "Gomer",
"groups": [
"Domain Users",
"IT Admins",
"Citrix",
"Misc"

I would like to remove the above user from all groups, except for "Domain 
Users" Unsure how to approach it in this scenario:
  tasks:
- name: "Disable non-vip user {{ user }}"
  win_domain_user:
name: "{{ user }}"
password: $1$SomeSalt$tNt/ObWy40s.iTT/tmGYV.
account_locked: yes
groups: "{{ item }}"
groups_action: remove
  with_items:
- aduser.groups

[ansible-project] alternate shadow file?

[eric.b.hymowitz via Ansible Project]

Greetings.

I would like to use the "user" module to change my password, but the shadow 
file is not located in /etc/shadow .  It's in an alternate location, 
specifically, /mnt/pxe/etc/shadow .  Is there a way to accomplish this?

I have a bad feeling that the answer is "only if the underlying passwd 
command allows this option," which it doesn't.

I suppose the "lineinfile" module will accomplish this with a little bit of 
extra effort, but it would be nice if the standard "user" module would 
allow this.

Maybe somebody has a better idea?

Thanks.

[ansible-project] Re: Possible to update target OS from an ISO?

[Todd Sampson]

Hi Benjamin,
Thanks for pointing me in the right direction.  Our goal is to update a few 
hundred hosts at different customer's sites all over the country.  We're 
hoping to not have to have any physical presence.

I've been looking at a program called FOG. One problem I'm seeing is that 
the bios of our target machines are not set up for PXE booting which FOG 
needs.  I don't think the bios can be changed without physical presence.  I 
could be wrong.

Our target machines are Ubuntu 12.04 installations on a normal PC without 
any kind of out-of-band management provisions.  They were initially set up 
at our factory.

I'll keep looking at the possibility of creating a new partition in the 
target hosts and installing a lite OS, booting into the new OS (can it be 
done remotely?), installing Ubuntu 18.04 in the original partition, fix 
network and grub settings, and booting into the new 18.04 OS.  Our targets 
are not on the internet so I'll have to create an Ubuntu repository with 
all the dependencies and make it available on the customer's networks.

We have two things going for us: The target host hardware is all the same 
and they are configured all the same.  And we have SSH access into all the 
targets.

If you have any more thoughts, I'd appreciate any ideas!

Thanks,
Todd

Currently, this scenario is not supported. However, we are actively working

Re: [ansible-project] Ansible parallel block execution

[S C Rigler]

There is now a "reboot" module (showed up in 2.7?) that will reboot
the host and wait for it to come back.

[ansible-project] Ansible parallel block execution

[Raoul]

Hi,

I am using in an Ansible playbook blocks to execute reboots on hosts when 
required after applying updates. I have to ensure that the hosts are back 
online after reboot.
Using 'strategy: free' so that all defined tasks aren't executed in linear 
order and it is not waited for a task to finish, but it looks like the 
wait_for_connection inside the block definition is blocking the whole 
playbook until ended.

My current block looks like this:

- when: reboot_required.rc != 0
  block:
  - name: Rebooting host
become: true
shell: 'shutdown -r +1 "Reboot required by Server Updates"'
ignore_errors: true

  - name: wait for server to come back
wait_for_connection:
  delay: 90
  timeout: 800
register: reboot_result

  - debug: var=reboot_result


How can I execute more reboots or wait_for_connection in parallel?

Thanks for any hints,
Raoul
