install

ansible must be installed

sudo pip install ansible

you will need the latest imcsdk.

sudo pip install imcsdk

git clone https://github.com/ciscoucs/imc-ansible
cd imc-ansible

You will need to run playbooks from the imc-ansible module directory so that local modules are available from the library subdirectory.
See https://docs.ansible.com/ansible/latest/dev_guide/developing_locally.html for more information on Ansible's use of local modules.

imc_managed_objects module usage and examples

The imc_managed_objects module provides access to the full IMC API through the imcsdk. imc_managed_objects requires the imcsdk module, class, and any needed properties for configuration. Visore (available on the IMC browser at 'https:///visore.html') can be used to help find Class names and required proerties on objects.

Examples using imc_managed_objects are provided in the playbooks directory, and here is example usage:

ansible-playbook -i example_inventory vnic_config.yml

PLAY [cimc] ***************************************************************************************************************************************************************************

TASK [Gather IMC inventory] ***

roles usage

site.yml and the various playbooks in the roles folder can be used as an example on how to use the various modules that are a part of this package.

Users can create a new playbook flow.yml and pick taks from the example roles and use them. Users can also modify the existing tasks and execute the plays as shown in the next section of the readme.

inventory file should be updated to mention the connection details of the server.

sample run using site.yml and roles

➔ ansible-playbook -i inventory site.yml
