Re: [ansible-project] Re: Working around lookup plugin limitation with environment variables

[Dick Visser]

Your setting it in one play and then try to use it in another. That won't
work.

Other question. You run this sts task for all hosts, but is that needed for
all of them?

[ansible-project] Re: Working around lookup plugin limitation with environment variables

[Nico H]

Thank you for the proposition, I ve been trying for days to put  this in 
every direction I could but unfortunately 'environment '
was never  passed to 'import_role' .
I am not sure how to investigate about import_role module and why 
environment is not supported , seems impossible to reuse sts.creds then .
Any idea is welcome

[ansible-project] Trouble with python bindings error (libselinux-python not installed) on RHEL8

[Robbie]

Hello all. 

I've been trying to troubleshoot a problem for days and I haven't been able 
to find anything online that refers to RHEL8/Centos8.I have success running 
on RHEL/Centos7, but I'm trying to push to the new platform. Ikeep getting 
this error:
TASK [genjson: Generate F5 JSON - Nodes] 

task path: /home/admsplitb/Lab-Infrastructure/roles/f5_dclb/tasks/main.yml:6
fatal: [genjson-1]: FAILED! => {"changed": false, "checksum": 
"60caf69c5c72c2814e3b1688a9564a86205778ed", "msg": "Aborting, target uses 
selinux but python bindings (libselinux-python) aren't installed!"}


My version of ansible and python
(py3venv) [user@lab playbooks]$ ansible --version
ansible 2.9.11
  config file = /home/user/Lab-Infrastructure/playbooks/ansible.cfg
  ansible python module location = /home/user/py3venv/lib64/python3.8/site-
packages/ansible
  executable location = /home/user/py3venv/bin/ansible
  python version = 3.8.0 (default, Mar  9 2020, 18:02:46) [GCC 8.3.1 
20191121 (Red Hat 8.3.1-5)]


I tried to link previous packages as indicated in this github issue 


First ensuring that the packages are installed: 

yum install libselinux-python

And then linking the files to your environment.
cd ~/py3venv/lib64/python3.8/site-packages/
ln -s /usr/lib64/python3.6/site-packages/selinux
ln -s /usr/lib64/python3.6/site-packages/_selinux.cpython-36m-x86_64-linux-
gnu.so


But in RHEL8, the package names have changed. 
yum install libselinux
yum install python3-libselinux


Anybody experience this and solve it yet?

Re: [ansible-project] setting up a new system with Ansible

[John Petro]

That is pretty close to what I am doing.  The only thing I want to do
differently, is that I want to lock the automation account, so that it's
only accepted from a specific host.  ( ie. the ansible control node)

[ansible-project] sensible-cmdb Default Columns

[Marlon Hester]

Hello anyone and everyone,

I've been using ansible-cmdb to generate an inventory webpage. I am trying 
to specify the "shown columns"  that show by default. I am aware of the 
"-c" option however when I use it, it removes the other unused columns. I 
want all column buttons to show but I want to be able to customize which 
one's are shown under the "host overview". 

I've tried to use sed to perform mods directly to the .html page but it's 
not providing the expected output.

[ansible-project] Ansible for Cisco switchport interface and 802.1x config

[Waqas Gondal]

Hi

 

I am working on putting Cisco ISE into enforcement mode on production Cisco 
switches for 802.1x wired authentication.

 

Currently the access interfaces all have 'authentication open' which needs 
to be removed.

 

I have Ansible installed and ready to configure switches.

 

Is there anyway I could configure a playbook to find access ports that have 
'authentication open' and remove it?

Thanks!

Re: [ansible-project] How to debug a community ansible module ?

[Matt Martz]

`ansible_collections` is the python module that the code will try to load,
so you cannot contain that in your PYTHONPATH, you need to set your
PYTHONPATH to the directory that contains the ansible_collections directory.

fwiw, I wouldn't recommend using this as the primary means to test or debug
a module.

Follow the docs outlined at
https://docs.ansible.com/ansible/devel/dev_guide/debugging.html#debugging-ansiblemodule-based-modules

If you bypass the normal execution flow, you aren't properly testing the
module.

[ansible-project] How to debug a community ansible module ?

[cmou...@redhat.com]

Hi,

As the packages to be imported by a python file are prefixed as 
"ansible_collections.", how can we then locally debug an Ansible Module

Example: 
https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.kubernetes/blob/main/plugins/modules/k8s_log.py

from ansible_collections.community.kubernetes.plugins.module_utils.common 
import KubernetesAnsibleModule
...

class KubernetesLogModule(KubernetesAnsibleModule):

def __init__(self, *args, **kwargs):
KubernetesAnsibleModule.__init__(self, *args,
 supports_check_mode=True,
 **kwargs)

Result

/usr/local/bin/python3.7 "/Users/cmoullia/Library/Application 
Support/JetBrains/IntelliJIdea2020.1/plugins/python/helpers/pydev/pydevd.py" 
--multiproc --qt-support=auto --client 127.0.0.1 --port 57135 --file 
/Users/cmoullia/code/ansible/community.kubernetes/plugins/modules/k8s_log.py
pydev debugger: process 68087 is connecting

Connected to pydev debugger (build 201.8538.31)
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "", line 983, in _find_and_load
  File "", line 953, in _find_and_load_unlocked
  File "", line 219, in

Best

Charles

[ansible-project] Retrieving a value from NetApp cluster, and assign it to a variable in Playbook

['vkk...@yahoo.com' via Ansible Project]

New to Ansible, and need your help.

I wanted to use a playbook to retrieve a value about a volume upon the 
entered volume name. Then I assign the value to a variable in Ansible. 
Based on the value, conditionally determine what next step is in my 
playbook. 

Can somebody please illustrate how the code should look like? I don't see a 
way that Ansible can interactively "talk" to the storage back and forth.

Replace vars_files with a lookup:

 vars:
cluster_names: "{{ lookup( 'file', 'cluster_name.json' ) }}"

This automatically converts the file contents from JSON to a list.

You can now loop over that:

 tasks:
   - name: Gather info about all ESXi Host in given Cluster
 vmware_host_service_info:
   validate_certs: no
   hostname: hostname
   username: user
   password: password
   cluster_name: "{{ item }}"
 with_items: "{{ cluster_names }}"
 delegate_to: localhost

Hi,

I have a json file-> cluster_name.json :
["cluster1","cluster2","cluster3","cluster4"]

And I want to iterate on every cluster name to obtain some informations so 
I use the module vmware_host_service_info.
My playbook is -> vmware.yml :
---
- name: test
  hosts: localhost
  vars_files:
- cluster_name.json
  tasks:
- name: Gather info about all ESXi Host in given Cluster
  vmware_host_service_info:
validate_certs: no
hostname: hostname
username: user
password: password
cluster_name: "{{cluster}}"  <-- HERE I WANT TO ITERATE ON 
EVERY CLUSTER_NAME IN cluster_name.json
  delegate_to: localhost

Re: [ansible-project] Ansible Remote Versioning

[Jean-Yves LENHOF]

Hi,

I gave you some ideas, I did'nt say this is a good practice to know what 
tasks has been already ran.


When you produce ansible role and playbook, you should ensure that you 
can run it whenever previous state was and if run more than once without 
modification results on server should be the same !

Hi JYL,

This is a great insight you have provided. That would certainly a good 
way on how to manipulate the Ansible and Ansible Tasks on each runs.
What what it doesn't solve is that how do i populate that fact file

For example,  at the end of each Ansible run, if i could generate a 
JSON file that would look like:


{
    "Task1":1,
    "Task2":1

And on Ansible, I can write "When: {{ ansible_local["Task1"] }} exists

then skip the task. This is ideal.

However, to generate the fact.d JSON file, i need a way for to know

Interesting question.

A local fact is a way :


https://docs.ansible.com/ansible/latest/user_guide/playbooks_variables.html#local-facts-facts-d

At the beginning of your playbook you test is the fact relating to
your playbook exist.

If existing, is the version different from the playbook you use

Do things differently if the version is x or y


Generally, this could be avoided using some automated test to not
make regression in a future version (molecule could be useful here
if target is a server)

Hi ,

I would like to post to this group to find out if there is anyway
for ansible to actually stamp the client with
Ansible Deployment or Deployment Stamp on what tasks were ran and
when it was ran, like a VERSION or DEPLOYMENT file that we could
deposit to the targets.

For example,

On first deployment the ansible scripts may just have tasks
like:

 1. APT UPDATE
 2. NTPDATE

this then was deployment and stamps on the client like this:

 1. Ansible Deployment 21/07/2020 13.35pm - v1.0
 1. Tasks:
 1. APT UPDATE 21/072020 13;40pm
 2. NTPDATE 21/072020 13.42pm


Then this ansible script was updated to contain 2 more tasks
like the below:

 1. APT UPDATE
 2. TIMESYNC DAEMON UPDATE
 3. NTPDATE
 4. PROXY UPDATE

And when this was ran again, the target system file gets
updated once it completes with:

 1. Ansible Deployment 21/07/2020 13.35pm - v1.0
 1. Tasks:
 1. APT UPDATE 21/072020 13;40pm
 2. NTPDATE 21/072020 13.42pm
 2. Ansible Deployment 21/07/2020 14.00pm - v1.1
 1. Tasks:
 1. APT UPDATE 21/07/2020 14.01pm
 2. TIMESYNC DAEMON UPDATE 21/07/2020 14.03pm
 3. NTPDATE 21/07/2020 14.04pm
 4. PROXY UPDATE 21/07/2020 14.07pm



Something like this, this allows those who are maintaining
individual platforms gets to know if the deployed platform is
upto date or not.
This would also help to know if the target system is to the
latest deployment or not.
Or is there any mechanism for this  ?

Re: [ansible-project] Ansible Remote Versioning

Hi JYL,

This is a great insight you have provided. That would certainly a good way 
on how to manipulate the Ansible and Ansible Tasks on each runs. 
What what it doesn't solve is that how do i populate that fact file with 
Tasks that has already been ran. 

For example,  at the end of each Ansible run, if i could generate a JSON 
file that would look like: 

{
"Task1":1,
"Task2":1
}

And on Ansible, I can write "When: {{ ansible_local["Task1"] }} exists and 
{{ ansible_local["Task1"] }} == 1"
then skip the task. This is ideal.

However, to generate the fact.d JSON file, i need a way for to know what 
tasks have been executed in the first place, 
and thats something i am figuring out, how can i know within this ansible 
run, what were the tasks executed ?
