dellemc_idrac_storage_volume -- Configures the RAID configuration attributes

This module is responsible for configuring the RAID attributes.

The below requirements are needed on the host that executes this module.

  • omsdk >= 1.2.488
  • python >= 3.9.6
state (optional, str, view)

create, performs create volume operation.

delete, performs remove volume operation.

view, returns storage view.

span_depth (optional, int, 1)

Number of spans in the RAID configuration.

span_depth is required for create and its value depends on volume_type.

span_length (optional, int, 1)

Number of disks in a span.

span_length is required for create and its value depends on volume_type.

number_dedicated_hot_spare (optional, int, 0)
Number of Dedicated Hot Spare.
volume_type (optional, str, RAID 0)
Provide the the required RAID level.
disk_cache_policy (optional, str, Default)
Disk Cache Policy.
write_cache_policy (optional, str, WriteThrough)
Write cache policy.
read_cache_policy (optional, str, NoReadAhead)
Read cache policy.
stripe_size (optional, int, 65536)
Stripe size value to be provided in multiples of 64 * 1024.
controller_id (optional, str, None)
Fully Qualified Device Descriptor (FQDD) of the storage controller, for example 'RAID.Integrated.1-1'. Controller FQDD is required for create RAID configuration.
media_type (optional, str, None)
Media type.
protocol (optional, str, None)
Bus protocol.
volume_id (optional, str, None)
Fully Qualified Device Descriptor (FQDD) of the virtual disk, for example 'Disk.virtual.0:RAID.Slot.1-1'. This option is used to get the virtual disk information.
volumes (optional, list, None)

A list of virtual disk specific iDRAC attributes. This is applicable for create and delete operations.

For create operation, name and drives are applicable options, other volume options can also be specified.

The drives is a required option for create operation and accepts either location (list of drive slot) or id (list of drive fqdd).

For delete operation, only name option is applicable.

See the examples for more details.

capacity (optional, float, None)
Virtual disk size in GB.
raid_reset_config (optional, str, False)
This option represents whether a reset config operation needs to be performed on the RAID controller. Reset Config operation deletes all the virtual disks present on the RAID controller.
raid_init_operation (optional, str, None)
This option represents initialization configuration operation to be performed on the virtual disk.
idrac_ip (True, str, None)
iDRAC IP Address.
idrac_user (True, str, None)
iDRAC username.
idrac_password (True, str, None)
iDRAC user password.
idrac_port (optional, int, 443)
iDRAC port.
validate_certs (optional, bool, True)

If false, the SSL certificates will not be validated.

Configure false only on personally controlled sites where self-signed certificates are used.

Prior to collection version 5.0.0, the validate_certs is false by default.

ca_path (optional, path, None)
The Privacy Enhanced Mail (PEM) file that contains a CA certificate to be used for the validation.
timeout (optional, int, 30)
The socket level timeout in seconds.

Note

  • Run this module from a system that has direct access to Dell iDRAC.
  • This module supports both IPv4 and IPv6 address for idrac_ip.
  • This module supports check_mode.
