# ansible-mso
The `ansible-mso` project provides an Ansible collection for managing and automating your Cisco ACI Multi-Site environment.
It consists of a set of modules and roles for performing tasks related to ACI Multi-Site.
This collection has been tested and supports MSO 2.1+.
Modules supporting new features introduced in MSO API in specific MSO versions might not be supported in earlier MSO releases.
*Note: This collection is not compatible with versions of Ansible before v2.8.*
*Note: The Nexus Dashboard (ND) HTTPAPI connection plugin should be used when Cisco ACI Multi-Site is installed on Nexus Dashboard (v3.2+) or when using this collection with Nexus Dashboard Orchestrator (v3.6+).*
## Requirements
- Ansible v2.9 or newer
## Install
Ansible must be installed
```
sudo pip install ansible
```
Install the collection
```
ansible-galaxy collection install cisco.mso
```
Install the Nexus Dashboard (ND) collection when Cisco ACI Multi-Site is installed on Nexus Dashboard (v3.2+) or when using this collection with Nexus Dashboard Orchestrator (v3.6+)
```
ansible-galaxy collection install cisco.nd
```
## Usage
Once the collection is installed, you can use it in a playbook by specifying the full namespace path to the module, plugin and/or role.
```yaml
- hosts: mso
gather_facts: no
tasks:
- name: Add a new site EPG
cisco.mso.mso_schema_site_anp_epg:
host: mso_host
username: admin
password: SomeSecretPassword
schema: Schema1
site: Site1
template: Template1
anp: ANP1
epg: EPG1
state: present
delegate_to: localhost
```
You can also use the MSO HTTPAPI connection plugin by setting the following variables in your inventory file (cisco.mso collection v1.2+).
```yaml
ansible_connection=ansible.netcommon.httpapi
ansible_network_os=cisco.mso.mso
```
The HTTPAPI connection plugin will also allow you to specify additional parameters as variable and omit them from the task itself. Module parameters will override global variables.
```yaml
ansible_host=10.0.0.1
ansible_user=admin
ansible_ssh_pass="MySuperPassword"
ansible_httpapi_validate_certs=False
ansible_httpapi_use_ssl=True
ansible_httpapi_use_proxy=True
```
You should use the Nexus Dashboard (ND) collection plugin, which is available in the [cisco.nd](https://galaxy.ansible.com/cisco/nd) collection, when Cisco ACI Multi-Site is installed on Nexus Dashboard (v3.2+) or when using this collection with Nexus Dashboard Orchestrator (v3.6+) by changing the following variables.
```yaml
ansible_connection=ansible.netcommon.httpapi
ansible_network_os=cisco.nd.nd
ansible_httpapi_use_ssl=True
```
## Update
Getting the latest/nightly collection build
### First Approach
Clone the ansible-mso repository.
```
git clone https://github.com/CiscoDevNet/ansible-mso.git
```
Go to the ansible-mso directory
```
cd ansible-mso
```
Pull the latest master on your mso
```
git pull origin master
```
Build and Install a collection from source
```
ansible-galaxy collection build --force
ansible-galaxy collection install cisco-mso-* --force
```
### Second Approach
Go to: https://github.com/CiscoDevNet/ansible-mso/actions
Select the latest CI build
Under Artifacts download collection and unzip it using Terminal or Console.
*Note: The collection file is a zip file containing a tar.gz file. We recommend using CLI because some GUI-based unarchiver might unarchive both nested archives in one go.*
Install the unarchived tar.gz file
```
ansible-galaxy collection install cisco-mso-1.0.0.tar.gz —-force
```
