FreeIPA 4.8.7 introduced an option to rename an existing hostgroup.
This patch adds support for renaming hostgroups if the option is
available on installed IPA version.
A new state `renamed` and a new option `rename` (alias: `new_name`)
was added to module `ipahostgroup` to allow renaming of host groups.
The implemented behavior is:
* Rename if `name` exists and `rename` doesn't.
* Do nothing if `name` does not exist and `rename` does, or if
`name` equals to `rename`. (result.changed is False)
* Fail if neither or both `name` and `rename` exist.
There is a new hostgroup management module placed in the plugins folder:
plugins/modules/ipahostgroup.py
The hostgroup module allows to add, remove and disable hosts.
The hostgroup module is as compatible as possible to the Ansible upstream
ipa_hostgroup module, but addtionally offers to ensure member presence and
absence.
Here is the documentation for the module:
README-hostgroup.md
New example playbooks have been added:
playbooks/hostgroup/ensure-hostgroup-is-absent.yml
playbooks/hostgroup/ensure-hostgroup-is-present.yml
playbooks/hostgroup/ensure-hosts-and-hostgroups-are-absent-in-hostgroup.yml
playbooks/hostgroup/ensure-hosts-and-hostgroups-are-present-in-hostgroup.yml
