--- # This playbook is intended to bootstrap network configuration of the iDRACs on # a set of Dell servers. By default, iDRACs have a known static IP address # configured. Since all iDRACs have the same default IP address, we need a way # to isolate a single iDRAC while we set its network configuration. We do this # using a temporary VLAN accessible from one of the controllers. # # We use the following procedure: # 1. Create a VLAN interface on the controller node with IP in the iDRAC # default subnet. # 2. Create the temporary bootstrap VLAN on the switch, accessible by the # controller and trunked to all switches within the network. # 3. For each iDRAC switch port in turn, flip to the temporary VLAN and # configure the iDRAC's IP address, before returning the port to the iDRAC # management VLAN. # 4. Remove the temporary bootstrap VLAN from the switch. # 5. Remove the VLAN interface on the controller node. # Playbook variables: # # idrac_limit: Colon-separated list of names of idracs to limit bootstrappping # to. These names should be present in the variable # idrac_network_ips. If omitted all idracs will be bootstrapped. - name: Ensure the iDRAC switches are supported hosts: "{{ idrac_bootstrap_switch_group }}" gather_facts: no vars: supported_switch_types: - dellos6 tasks: - name: Ensure switch type is supported fail: msg: > The iDRAC bootstrap process currently only supports DellOS6 switches. when: switch_type not in supported_switch_types # 1.
