The automountmap module allows the addition and removal of maps within automount locations.
It is desgined to follow the IPA api as closely as possible while ensuring ease of use.
- Automount map management
FreeIPA versions 4.4.0 and up are supported by the ipaautomountmap module.
Controller
- Ansible version: 2.15+
Node
- Supported FreeIPA version (see above)
Example inventory file
[ipaserver]
ipaserver.test.local
Example playbook to ensure presence of an automount map:
---
- name: Playbook to add an automount map
hosts: ipaserver
become: no
tasks:
- name: ensure map named auto.DMZ in location DMZ is created
ipaautomountmap:
ipaadmin_password: SomeADMINpassword
name: auto.DMZ
location: DMZ
desc: "this is a map for servers in the DMZ"
Automount maps can contain a submount key, which defines a mount location within the map the references another map. On FreeIPA, this is known as an indirect map. An indirect automount map is equivalent to adding a proper automount key to a map, referencyng another map (this second map is the indirect map). Use parent
and mount
parameters to create an indirect automount map with ansible-freeipa, without the need to directly manage the automount keys.
Example playbook to ensure an indirect automount map is present:
---
- name: Playbook to add an indirect automount map
ipaautomountmap:
ipaadmin_password: SomeADMINpassword
name: auto.indirect
location: DMZ
parent: auto.DMZ
mount: dmz_indirect
Example playbook to ensure auto.DMZi is absent:
---
- name: Playbook to remove an automount map
hosts: ipaserver
become: no
tasks:
- name: ensure map auto.DMZ has been removed
ipaautomountmap:
ipaadmin_password: SomeADMINpassword
name: auto.DMZ
location: DMZ
state: absent
