Synopsis
--------
This module allows to create, modify, and delete static device groups on OpenManage Enterprise.
Requirements
------------
The below requirements are needed on the host that executes this module.
- python \>= 3.9.6
Parameters
----------
state (optional, str, present)
\ :literal:`present`\ allows to create or modify a device group.
\ :literal:`absent`\ allows to delete a device group.
name (optional, list, None)
Name of the device group to be created, modified, or deleted.
If \ :emphasis:`state`\ is absent, multiple names can be provided.
This option is case insensitive.
This option is mutually exclusive with \ :emphasis:`group\_id`\ .
group_id (optional, list, None)
ID of the device group to be created, modified, or deleted.
If \ :emphasis:`state`\ is absent, multiple IDs can be provided.
This option is mutually exclusive with \ :emphasis:`name`\ .
new_name (optional, str, None)
New name for the existing device group.
This is applicable only when \ :emphasis:`state`\ is \ :literal:`present`\ .
description (optional, str, None)
Description for the device group.
This is applicable only when \ :emphasis:`state`\ is \ :literal:`present`\ .
parent_group_name (optional, str, Static Groups)
Name of the parent device group under which the device group to be created or modified.
This is applicable only when \ :emphasis:`state`\ is \ :literal:`present`\ .
\ :literal:`NOTE`\ If device group with such a name does not exist, device group with \ :emphasis:`parent\_group\_name`\ is created.
This option is case insensitive.
This option is mutually exclusive with \ :emphasis:`parent\_group\_id`\ .
parent_group_id (optional, int, None)
ID of the parent device group under which the device group to be created or modified.
This is applicable only when \ :emphasis:`state`\ is \ :literal:`present`\ .
This option is mutually exclusive with \ :emphasis:`parent\_group\_name`\ .
hostname (True, str, None)
OpenManage Enterprise IP address or hostname.
username (False, str, None)

- If a device group with the name \ :emphasis:`parent\_group\_name`\ does not exist, a new device group with the same name is created.
- Make sure the entered parent group is not the descendant of the provided group.
- Run this module from a system that has direct access to Dell OpenManage Enterprise.
- This module supports \ :literal:`check\_mode`\ .
