Cannot pull all facts with nxos_facts #18968

jean-christophe-manciot · 2016-12-08T09:55:31Z

ISSUE TYPE

Bug Report

COMPONENT NAME

nxos_facts

ANSIBLE VERSION

ansible --version
2.3.0 (commit c064dce)
  config file = /etc/ansible/ansible.cfg
  configured module search path = Default w/o overrides
or
2.2.1.0-1
  config file = /etc/ansible/ansible.cfg
  configured module search path = Default w/o overrides

CONFIGURATION

inventory = ./hosts
gathering = explicit
roles_path = /home/actionmystique/Program-Files/Ubuntu/Ansible/git-Ansible/roles
private_role_vars = yes
log_path = /var/log/ansible.log
fact_caching = redis
fact_caching_timeout = 86400
retry_files_enabled = False

OS / ENVIRONMENT

Local host: Ubuntu 16.04 4.4.0
Target nodes: NX-OSv 7.3(0)D1(1) (last release available in Cisco VIRL)

SUMMARY

Running nxos_facts triggers a fatal error (connection timeout), whereas I can manually login into the target node with SSH or run nxos-feature on the same targets.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE

- include_vars: "../defaults/{{ os_family }}/http.yml"
- include_vars: "../defaults/{{ os_family }}/connections.yml"

- name: Fetching facts from the remote node
  nxos_facts:
        gather_subset: all
        provider: "{{ connections.nxapi }}"
  register: return

EXPECTED RESULTS

Successful nxos_facts

Some more information (as I think it is the same issue):

$ ansible --version
ansible 2.2.1.0
  config file = /home/gituser/.ansible.cfg
  configured module search path = Default w/o overrides

This playbook works totally fine:

$ cat nxos_test.yml 
---
- hosts: nxos
  vars: 
    my_creds:
      host: "{{ ansible_ssh_host }}"
      username: "{{ username }}"
      password: "{{ password }}"
      transport: nxapi

  tasks:
    - nxos_facts:
        provider: "{{ my_creds }}"
#        gather_subset: all
        use_ssl: yes
        port: 8443
        validate_certs: False
      register: output

#    - debug: msg="{{ output }}"

$ ansible-playbook nxos_test.yml -i ./ansible-hosts

The module documentation talks about a new timeout field which should be increased with NXAPI, especially when trying to gather all facts.

Unfortunately, we cannot test that with the last devel version (2.3.0~git20170220.7bc7f1385) which cannot even establish a correct NXAPI connection with the target with exactly the same parameters as the ones used with 2.2.1.0-1:
Using the following provider:

        nxapi:
          transport: nxapi
          host: "{{ ansible_host }}"
          # ansible_port
          port: "{{ http.port }}"
          # ansible_user
          username: admin
          password: ************
          # enable_secret_password
          auth_pass: ************
          # http or https
          use_ssl: no
          validate_certs: "{{ https.validate_certs }}"
          timeout: 60

With 2.3.0~git20170220.7bc7f1385

+1 I can confirm this is a problem as well when using the cli module on the current devel head.

Additionally, it looks like the devel head has some very broken commits in it (global name out) not found.

privateip · 2017-03-23T20:53:57Z

PR #22923 should fix up these issues

calfonso · 2017-03-24T14:48:07Z

@jean-christophe-manciot @wrouesnel the PR is merged, do you have time to take it for a spin and report on if the issue is resolved?

wrouesnel · 2017-03-24T21:03:14Z

I can test with an NX 9000 next week.

gundalow · 2017-03-27T11:09:19Z

@wrouesnel Thank would be great, thanks

jean-christophe-manciot · 2017-03-27T16:56:32Z

@privateip @gundalow @calfonso
Yes, finally 🙂
With latest ansible from pip install git+git://github.com/ansible/ansible.git@devel:

# ansible --version
ansible 2.4.0
  config file = /etc/ansible/ansible.cfg
  configured module search path = Default w/o overrides
  python version = 2.7.12+ (default, Sep 17 2016, 12:08:02) [GCC 6.2.0 20160914]

On NX-OSv 7000 7.3(0)D1(1)
I am able to pull all facts:

{
    "ansible_net_all_ipv4_addresses": [
        "172.21.100.11"
    ],
    "ansible_net_all_ipv6_addresses": [],

    "ansible_net_image": "bootflash:///titanium-d1.7.3.0.D1.1.bin",
    "ansible_net_interfaces": {
...

Same success on NX-OSv 9000 7.0(3)I5(1).

As far as I'm concerned, this issue is solved.
However, we should probably wait for @wrouesnel for tests on physical Nexus 93xx or 95xx before closing this.

gundalow · 2017-03-27T17:46:57Z

@jean-christophe-manciot Thank you for testing this.

Will wait for final confirmation from @wrouesnel

calfonso · 2017-03-29T19:30:03Z

@wrouesnel Any feedback on this fix?

wrouesnel · 2017-03-29T22:54:00Z

Checking PR 21811, it looks like the module isn't working at all?

@wrouesnel what is PR 21811?

PR #22923 is the one that fixes nxos_facts although now its merged so you can run directly from devel or stable-2.3

I see the error in the second comment and will address shortly

wrouesnel · 2017-03-30T05:40:41Z

Apparently I'm an idiot and pulled entirely the wrong thing this morning, so ignore that first part. The second error is from devel though so is definitely real.

jean-christophe-manciot · 2017-03-30T08:12:51Z

@wrouesnel Have you tried with transport: nxapi?

wrouesnel · 2017-03-30T11:31:12Z

Our switches don't have the nxapi switched on at the moment. The module claims to support the cli transport, which is what we'd like to use. If it doesn't support this the error should definitely be more specific.

privateip · 2017-03-30T11:57:11Z

@wrouesnel replicated and fixing it now ... should have a PR posted in the next hour or so

wrouesnel · 2017-03-30T13:10:52Z

Awesome. It'll be about 10 hours before I'm on the same network as our nx9ks again.

Fixed with the cli provider and Cisco 9k switch - thanks!
