Topology modules

================

Description

-----------

These modules allow to manage the topology. That means that it can made sure that topology segments are present, absent or reinitialized. Also it is possible to verify topology suffixes.

Features

--------

* Topology management

Supported FreeIPA Versions

--------------------------

FreeIPA versions 4.4.0 and up are supported by the ipatopologysegment and ipatopologysuffix modules.

Requirements

------------

**Controller**

* Ansible version: 2.8+

**Node**

* Supported FreeIPA version (see above)

Usage

=====

Example inventory file

```ini

[ipaserver]

ipaserver.test.local

```

Example playbook to add a topology segment with default name (cn):

```yaml

---

- name: Playbook to handle topologysegment

  hosts: ipaserver

  become: true

  tasks:

  - name: Add topology segment

    ipatopologysegment:

      ipaadmin_password: SomeADMINpassword

      suffix: domain

      left: ipareplica1.test.local

      right: ipareplica2.test.local

      state: present

```

The name (cn) can also be set if it should not be the default `{left}-to-{right}`.

Example playbook to delete a topology segment:

```yaml

---

- name: Playbook to handle topologysegment

  hosts: ipaserver

  become: true

  tasks:

  - name: Delete topology segment

    ipatopologysegment:

      ipaadmin_password: SomeADMINpassword

      suffix: domain

      left: ipareplica1.test.local

      right: ipareplica2.test.local

      state: absent

```

It is possible to either use the name (cn) or left and right nodes. If left and right nodes are used, then the name will be searched and used internally.

Example playbook to reinitialize a topology segment:

```yaml

---

- name: Playbook to handle topologysegment

  hosts: ipaserver

  become: true

  tasks:

  - name: Reinitialize topology segment

    ipatopologysegment:

      ipaadmin_password: SomeADMINpassword

      suffix: domain

      left: ipareplica1.test.local

      right: ipareplica2.test.local

      direction: left-to-right

      state: reinitialized

```

It is possible to either use the name (cn) or left and right nodes. If left and right nodes are used, then the name will be searched and used internally.

Example playbook to verify a topology suffix:

```yaml

---

- name: Playbook to handle topologysuffix

  hosts: ipaserver

  become: true

  tasks:

  - name: Verify topology suffix

    ipatopologysuffix:

      ipaadmin_password: SomeADMINpassword

      suffix: domain

      state: verified

```

Example playbook to add or remove or check or reinitialize a list of topology segments:

```yaml

---

- name: Add topology segments

  hosts: ipaserver

  become: true

  gather_facts: false

  vars:

    ipaadmin_password: password1

    ipatopology_segments:

    - {suffix: domain, left: replica1.test.local, right: replica2.test.local}

    - {suffix: domain, left: replica2.test.local, right: replica3.test.local}

    - {suffix: domain, left: replica3.test.local, right: replica4.test.local}

    - {suffix: domain+ca, left: replica4.test.local, right: replica1.test.local}

  tasks:

  - name: Add topology segment

    ipatopologysegment:

      ipaadmin_password: "{{ ipaadmin_password }}"

      suffix: "{{ item.suffix }}"

      name: "{{ item.name | default(omit) }}"

      left: "{{ item.left }}"

      right: "{{ item.right }}"

      state: present

      #state: absent

      #state: checked

      #state: reinitialized

    loop: "{{ ipatopology_segments | default([]) }}"

```
