Hi,

 

Currently this python library is primarily to be used with the Ansible modules for VPLEX:

You will find detailed instructions on how to use the Ansible modules for VPLEX at this location.

Hi,

1. For python-vplex to get added into PyPi, backlog is already created and it will be available in PyPi as part of future milestone releases
2. We have specified the details of accessing VPLEX clusters with or without cert in the Product Guide and is present in the docs folder of  GITHUB repository https://github.com/dell/ansible-vplex/tree/master/dellemc_ansible/docs

 

In brief, to get the list of clusters below is the playbook task and we have a common module to get the list of VPLEX storage entities called “dellemc_vplex_gatherfacts”

 

# Gather Facts  --- - name: List the storage objects of VPLEX   hosts: localhost   connection: local   vars:     # Variable parameters     vplexhost: <**************>     vplexuser: <**************>     vplexpassword: <**************>     # Constant parameters     verifycert: false   # Sample one to access VPLEX cluster without cert     tasks:   - name: List of clusters in VPLEX     dellemc_vplex_gatherfacts:        vplexhost: "{ { vplexhost }}"        vplexuser: "{ { vplexuser }}"        vplexpassword: "{ { vplexpassword }}"        verifycert: "{ { verifycert }}"     register: clusters

 

To access the VPLEX with cert set to True, we need to include “ssl_ca_cert” parameter in the task and details on how to retrieve CA certificate is covered in the Product guide under the section “Steps to retrieve CA certificate from VPLEX”

vars:    # Variable parameters     vplexhost: <**************>     vplexuser: <**************>     vplexpassword: <**************>     # Constant parameters     verifycert: true    ssl_ca_cert: “
