## Synopsis

- Create/Delete NVME subsystem
- Associate(modify) host/map to NVME subsystem
- NVMe service should be existing in the data vserver with NVMe protocol as a pre-requisite

## Requirements

The below requirements are needed on the host that executes this module.

- A physical or virtual clustered Data ONTAP system. The modules support Data ONTAP 9.1 and onward
- Ansible 2.6
- Python2 netapp-lib (2017.10.30) or later. Install using ‘pip install netapp-lib’
- Python3 netapp-lib (2018.11.13) or later. Install using ‘pip install netapp-lib’
- To enable http on the cluster you must run the following commands ‘set -privilege advanced;’ ‘system services web modify -http-enabled true;’

## Parameters

Parameter | Choices/Defaults | Comments
--- | --- | ---
hostname string / required |  | The hostname or IP address of the ONTAP instance.
hosts list |  | List of host NQNs (NVMe Qualification Name) associated to the controller.
http_port integer |  | Override the default port (80 or 443) with this port
https boolean | Choices: no ← yes | Enable and disable https

paths list |  | List of Namespace paths to be associated with the subsystem.
skip_host_check boolean | Choices: no ← yes | Skip host check Required to delete an NVMe Subsystem with attached NVMe namespaces
skip_mapped_check boolean | Choices: no ← yes | Skip mapped namespace check Required to delete an NVMe Subsystem with attached NVMe namespaces
state - | Choices: present ← absent | Whether the specified subsystem should exist or not.
subsystem - / required |  | Specifies the subsystem
use_rest string | Choices: Never Always Auto ← | REST API if supported by the target system for all the resources and attributes the module requires. Otherwise will revert to ZAPI. Always -- will always use the REST API Never -- will always use the ZAPI Auto -- will try to use the REST Api
