Notes
Note
- Check mode is supported.
 - This module requires Web Services API v1.3 or newer.
 - The E-Series Ansible modules require either an instance of the Web Services Proxy (WSP), to be available to manage the storage-system, or an E-Series storage-system that supports the Embedded Web Services API.
 - Embedded Web Services is currently available on the E2800, E5700, EF570, and newer hardware models.
 - M(netapp_e_storage_system) may be utilized for configuring the systems managed by a WSP instance.
 
Examples
- name: Set the storage-system name
  netapp_e_global:
    name: myArrayName
    api_url: "10.1.1.1:8443"
    api_username: "admin"
    api_password: "myPass"
