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

[ipaserver]
ipaserver.test.local

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

---
- name: Playbook to handle topologysegment
  hosts: ipaserver
  become: true

  tasks:
  - name: Add topology segment
    ipatopologysegment:
      ipaadmin_password: MyPassword123
      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:

---
- name: Playbook to handle topologysegment
  hosts: ipaserver
  become: true

  tasks:
  - name: Delete topology segment
    ipatopologysegment:
      ipaadmin_password: MyPassword123
      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:

---
- name: Playbook to handle topologysegment
  hosts: ipaserver
  become: true

  tasks:
  - name: Reinitialize topology segment
    ipatopologysegment:
      ipaadmin_password: MyPassword123
      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:

---
- name: Playbook to handle topologysuffix
  hosts: ipaserver
  become: true

  tasks:
  - name: Verify topology suffix
    ipatopologysuffix:
      ipaadmin_password: MyPassword123
      suffix: domain
      state: verified

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

---
- 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([]) }}"

Variables

ipatopologysegment
