Logging role
|
|
============
|
|
|
|
This role facilitates the configuration of global logging attributes, and it supports the configuration of logging servers. This role is abstracted for Dell EMC PowerSwitch platforms running Dell EMC OS9.
|
|
|
|
The Logging role requires an SSH connection for connectivity to a Dell EMC OS9 device. You can use any of the built-in OS connection variables.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Role variables
|
|
--------------
|
|
|
|
- Role is abstracted using the `ansible_network_os` variable that can take `dellemc.os9.os9` as the value
|
|
- If the `os9_cfg_generate` variable is set to true, it generates the role configuration commands in a file
|
|
- Any role variable with a corresponding state variable set to absent negates the configuration of that variable
|
|
- Setting an empty value for any variable negates the corresponding configuration
|
|
- Variables and values are case-sensitive

Connection variables
|
|
--------------------
|
|
|
|
Ansible Dell EMC network 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 inventory, 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_USE`R 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\* | Loads the correct terminal and cliconf plugins to communicate with the remote device |
|
|
|
|
> **NOTE**: Asterisk (\*) denotes the default value if none is specified.
|
|
|
|
Example playbook
|
|
----------------
|
|
|
|
This example uses the *os9_logging* role to completely set up logging servers. It creates a *hosts* file with the switch details and corresponding variables. The hosts file should define the `ansible_network_os` variable with corresponding Dell EMC OS9 name.
|
|
|
|
When `os9_cfg_generate` is set to true, the variable generates the configuration commands as a .part file in *build_dir* path. By default, the variable is set to false.
|
|
|
|

leaf1 ansible_host= <ip_address>
