Ansible Collection for Unity v1.5.0 -- get error while get /set pool values

Hi @sfasby,

The storagepool module will enter the create workflow if the specified pool id does not exist. To create the pool, pool_name is mandatory and hence the above error is displayed. Could you please try to re-execute the playbook by using a valid pool id?

Please let me know of any issues.

Thanks,

Jennifer 

FWIW, the pool id does exist. I'm just trying to read values and for some reason it is creating a pool.

I'm using following example

- name: Get Storage pool details using pool_id
  dellemc.unity.storagepool:
    unispherehost: "{{unispherehost}}"
    username: "{{username}}"
    password: "{{password}}"
    validate_certs: "{{validate_certs}}"
    pool_id: "{{pool_id}}"
    state: "present"

Hi @sfasby 

Have you tried to retrieve any other pool information? Are you facing the same error?

Could you also please try to execute the info module playbook to retrieve the list of pool_id's available and verify if the id is part of the result subset from the info module execution?

Sharing the info module task below

Thanks,

Jennifer

Hi Jeniffer,

The above code does work.

I get the Pool id which is the same as the one I'm passing.

               "Consistency_Groups": [],
                "Disk_Groups": [],
                "FC_initiators": [],
                "File_Systems": [],
                "Hosts": [],
                "ISCSI_initiators": [],
                "NAS_Servers": [],
                "NFS_Exports": [],
                "SMB_Shares": [],
                "Snapshot_Schedules": [],
                "Snapshots": [],
                "Storage_Pools": [
                    {
                        "id": "pool_1",
                        "name": "Pool0"
                    }
                ],

Hi @sfasby 

I tried to reproduce the issue in my environment but the get call is working as expected. I am suspecting if this could be a playbook issue(with the parameters sent in playbook)? Can you please execute the playbook using -vvv option (ansible-playbook storage_pool.yml -vvv) and verify the parameters sent in the module input from the items declared in the playbook?

Could you also please share the playbook syntax and o/p on execution using the -vvv option.

Thanks,

Jennifer

Hi @jennifer_john ,

Please find playbook and role which I'm invoking.

Playbook:

---

- hosts: unity
  connection: local
  collections:
    - dellemc.unity
  gather_facts: yes
  roles:
    - unity_pool_threshold

storage pool / role:

---

- name: Get Storage pool details using pool_id
  dellemc.unity.storagepool:
    unispherehost: 'hst01'
    username: '{{ unity_admin_username }}'
    password: '{{ unity_admin_password }}'
    verifycert: '{{ verifycert }}'
    pool_id: 'pool_1'
    state: 'present'
  register: result

- name: Debug
  ansible.builtin.debug:
    var: result

Will attach the output in the followup update.

Hi @sfasby ,

Could you please share the output attachment to ansible.team@dell.com. This would also be helpful to setup further webex session if needed as well.

Thanks,

Jennifer

Hi @jennifer_john ,
