Copy-config role
|
|
================
|
|
|
|
This role is used to push the backup running configuration into a Dell EMC Networking device running OS9, and merges the configuration in the template file with the running configuration of the device.
|
|
|
|
The copy_config role requires an SSH connection for connectivity to a Dell EMC Networking device. You can use any of the built-in OS connection variables .
|
|
|
|
|
|
Role variables
|
|
--------------
|
|
|
|
- No predefined variables are part of this role
|
|
- Use *host_vars* or *group_vars* as part of the template file
|
|
- Configuration file is host-specific
|
|
- Copy the host-specific configuration to the respective file under the template directory in *<host_name>.j2* format
|
|
- Variables and values are case-sensitive
|
|
|
|
Connection variables
|
|
--------------------
|
|
|
|
Ansible Dell EMC Networking roles require connection information to establish communication with the nodes in your inventory. This information can exist in the Ansible *group_vars* or *host_vars* directories, or in the playbook itself.
|
|
|
|
| Key | Required | Choices | Description |
|
|
|-------------|----------|------------|-----------------------------------------------------|
|
|
| ``ansible_host`` | yes | | Specifies the hostname or address for connecting to the remote device over the specified transport |
|
|
| ``ansible_port`` | no | | Specifies the port used to build the connection to the remote device; if value is unspecified, the ANSIBLE_REMOTE_PORT option is used; it defaults to 22 |
|
|
| ``ansible_ssh_user`` | no | | Specifies the username that authenticates the CLI login for the connection to the remote device; if value is unspecified, the ANSIBLE_REMOTE_USER environment variable value is used |
|
|
| ``ansible_ssh_pass`` | no | | Specifies the password that authenticates the connection to the remote device. |
|
|
| ``ansible_become`` | no | yes, no\* | Instructs the module to enter privileged mode on the remote device before sending any commands; if value is unspecified, the ANSIBLE_BECOME environment variable value is used, and the device attempts to execute all commands in non-privileged mode |
|
|
| ``ansible_become_method`` | no | enable, sudo\* | Instructs the module to allow the become method to be specified for handling privilege escalation; if value is unspecified, the ANSIBLE_BECOME_METHOD environment variable value is used. |
|
|
| ``ansible_become_pass`` | no | | Specifies the password to use if required to enter privileged mode on the remote device; if ``ansible_become`` is set to no this key is not applicable. |
|
|
| ``ansible_network_os`` | yes | os9, null\* | This value is used to load the correct terminal and cliconf plugins to communicate with the remote device. |
|
|
|
|
> **NOTE**: Asterisk (\*) denotes the default value if none is specified.
|
|
|
|
Dependencies
|
|
------------
|
|
|
|
The *os9_copy_config* role is built on modules included in the core Ansible code. These modules were added in Ansible version 2.2.0.
|
|
|
|
Example playbook
|
|
----------------
|
|
|
|
This example uses the *os9_copy_config* role to push the configuration file into the device. It creates a *hosts* file with the switch details and corresponding variables. It writes a simple playbook that only references the *os9_copy_config* role. By including the role, you automatically get access to all of the tasks to push configuration file.
