NetApp E-Series SANtricity Collection ========= The SANtricity collection consist of the latest available versions of the NetApp E-Series SANtricity modules and roles. This collection provides NetApp E-Series customers with a wide range of configuration options through the collection's modules. However, the real benefit of using the SANtricity collection is found in the host and management roles. These roles provide ready-made, policy-based orchestration for E-Series platforms based on predefined role variables. Once the physical hardware has been installed, the SANtricity roles are capable of discovering the DHCP-assigned addresses, setting initial passwords and management interfaces so your automation can do full deployments for you without logging directly into the devices. Yet that's just the beginning, the management role will also ensure alerts, ASUP, logging, LDAP, and firmware are configured as expected; and the host role will setup host interfaces, provision and map storage, and if your servers are defined in the inventory, correctly populate E-Series hosts and host groups automatically. Roles: - nar_santricity_common: Discover NetApp E-Series storage systems and configures SANtricity Web Services Proxy. - nar_santricity_host: Configure storage pools, volumes, hosts, host groups, and port interfaces. - nar_santricity_management: Manage storage system's name, management interfaces, alerts, syslog, auditlog, asup, ldap, certificates, drive firmware and controller firmware.

Minor Changes ------------- - Add functionality to remove all inventory configuration in the nar_santricity_host role. Set configuration.eseries_remove_all_configuration=True to remove all storage pool/volume configuration, host, hostgroup, and lun mapping configuration. - Add host_types, host_port_protocols, host_port_information, hostside_io_interface_protocols to netapp_volumes_by_initiators in the na_santricity_facts module. - Add storage pool information to the volume_by_initiator facts. - Add storage system not found exception to the common role's build_info task. - Add volume_metadata option to na_santricity_volume module, add volume_metadata information to the netapp_volumes_by_initiators dictionary in na_santricity_facts module, and update the nar_santricity_host role with the option. - Improve nar_santricity_common storage system api determinations; attempts to discover the storage system using the information provided in the inventory before attempting to search the subnet. - Increased the storage system discovery connection timeouts to 30 seconds to prevent systems from not being discovered over slow connections. - Minimize the facts gathered for the host initiators. - Update ib iser determination to account for changes in firmware 11.60.2. - Use existing Web Services Proxy storage system identifier when one is already created and one is not provided in the inventory. - Utilize eseries_iscsi_iqn before searching host for iqn in nar_santricity_host role. Bugfixes -------- - Fix check_port_type method for ib iser when ib is the port type. - Fix examples in the netapp_e_mgmt_interface module. - Fix issue with changing host port name. - Fix na_santricity_lun_mapping unmapping issue; previously mapped volumes failed to be unmapped.
