lvm_facts – Reports LVM information as facts.¶
Synopsis¶
List and reports details about defined AIX Logical Volume Manager (LVM) components such as Physical volumes, Logical volumes and Volume groups in Ansible facts.
Requirements¶
The below requirements are needed on the host that executes this module.
AIX >= 7.1 TL3
Python >= 2.7
Parameters¶
- name (optional, str, all)
Specifies the name of a LVM component.
- component (optional, str, all)
Specifies the type of LVM component to report information. A(pv) specifies physical volume. A(lv) specifies logical volume. A(vg) specifies volume group.
allspecifies all previous LVM components to be reported.- lvm (optional, dict, {})
Users can provide the existing LVM facts to which the queried facts should be updated. If not specified, the LVM facts in the ansible_facts will be replaced.
Examples¶
- name: Gather all lvm facts
lvm_facts:
- name: Gather VG facts
lvm_facts:
name: all
component: vg
- name: Update PV facts to existing LVM facts
lvm_facts:
name: all
component: pv
lvm: "{{ ansible_facts.LVM }}"
- name: Gather LV facts
lvm_facts:
name: all
component: lv
