Notes
Note
- This module requires infinisdk python library
 - You must set INFINIBOX_USER and INFINIBOX_PASSWORD environment variables if user and password arguments are not passed to the module directly
 - Ansible uses the infinisdk configuration file 
~/.infinidat/infinisdk.iniif no credentials are provided. See http://infinisdk.readthedocs.io/en/latest/getting_started.html - All Infinidat modules support check mode (–check). However, a dryrun that creates resources may fail if the resource dependencies are not met for a task. For example, consider a task that creates a volume in a pool. If the pool does not exist, the volume creation task will fail. It will fail even if there was a previous task in the playbook that would have created the pool but did not because the pool creation was also part of the dry run.
 
Examples
- name: Make sure host bar is available with wwn/iqn ports
  infini_host:
    name: bar.example.com
    state: present
    wwns:
      - "00:00:00:00:00:00:00"
      - "11:11:11:11:11:11:11"
    iqns:
        - "iqn.yyyy-mm.reverse-domain:unique-string"
    system: ibox01
    user: admin
    password: secret
