community.general.ipa_host – Manage FreeIPA host  Note This plugin is part of the community.general collection (version 1.3.2). To install it use: ansible-galaxy collection install community.general. To use it in a playbook, specify: community.general.ipa_host.   Synopsis Parameters Examples Return Values  Synopsis  Add, modify and delete an IPA host using IPA API.  Parameters   Parameter Choices/Defaults Comments    description  string      A description of this host.     force  boolean    
Choices: no yes    Force host name even if not in DNS.     fqdn  string / required      Full qualified domain name. Can not be changed as it is the unique identifier. 
aliases: name     ip_address  string      Add the host to DNS with this IP address.     ipa_host  string    Default:"ipa.example.com"   IP or hostname of IPA server. If the value is not specified in the task, the value of environment variable IPA_HOST will be used instead. If both the environment variable IPA_HOST and the value are not specified in the task, then DNS will be used to try to discover the FreeIPA server. The relevant entry needed in FreeIPA is the 'ipa-ca' entry. If neither the DNS entry, nor the environment IPA_HOST, nor the value are available in the task, then the default value will be used. Environment variable fallback mechanism is added in Ansible 2.5.     ipa_pass  string      Password of administrative user. If the value is not specified in the task, the value of environment variable IPA_PASS will be used instead. Note that if the 'urllib_gssapi' library is available, it is possible to use GSSAPI to authenticate to FreeIPA. If the environment variable KRB5CCNAME is available, the module will use this kerberos credentials cache to authenticate to the FreeIPA server. If the environment variable KRB5_CLIENT_KTNAME is available, and KRB5CCNAME is not; the module will use this kerberos keytab to authenticate. If GSSAPI is not available, the usage of 'ipa_pass' is required. Environment variable fallback mechanism is added in Ansible 2.5.     ipa_port  integer    Default:443   Port of FreeIPA / IPA server. If the value is not specified in the task, the value of environment variable IPA_PORT will be used instead. If both the environment variable IPA_PORT and the value are not specified in the task, then default value is set. Environment variable fallback mechanism is added in Ansible 2.5.     ipa_prot  string    
Choices: http 
https ←    Protocol used by IPA server. If the value is not specified in the task, the value of environment variable IPA_PROT will be used instead. If both the environment variable IPA_PROT and the value are not specified in the task, then default value is set. Environment variable fallback mechanism is added in Ansible 2.5.     ipa_timeout  integer    Default:10   Specifies idle timeout (in seconds) for the connection. For bulk operations, you may want to increase this in order to avoid timeout from IPA server. If the value is not specified in the task, the value of environment variable IPA_TIMEOUT will be used instead. If both the environment variable IPA_TIMEOUT and the value are not specified in the task, then default value is set.     ipa_user  string    Default:"admin"   Administrative account used on IPA server. If the value is not specified in the task, the value of environment variable IPA_USER will be used instead. If both the environment variable IPA_USER and the value are not specified in the task, then default value is set. Environment variable fallback mechanism is added in Ansible 2.5.     mac_address  list / elements=string      List of Hardware MAC address(es) off this host. If option is omitted MAC addresses will not be checked or changed. If an empty list is passed all assigned MAC addresses will be removed. MAC addresses that are already assigned but not passed will be removed. 
aliases: macaddress     ns_hardware_platform  string      Host hardware platform (e.g. "Lenovo T61") 
aliases: nshardwareplatform     ns_host_location  string      Host location (e.g. "Lab 2") 
aliases: nshostlocation     ns_os_version  string      Host operating system and version (e.g. "Fedora 9") 
aliases: nsosversion     random_password  boolean    
Choices: no yes    Generate a random password to be used in bulk enrollment.     state  string    
Choices: absent disabled enabled 
present ←    State to ensure.     update_dns  boolean    
Choices: no yes    If set "True" with state as "absent", then removes DNS records of the host managed by FreeIPA DNS. This option has no effect for states other than "absent".     user_certificate  list / elements=string      List of Base-64 encoded server certificates. If option is omitted certificates will not be checked or changed. If an empty list is passed all assigned certificates will be removed. Certificates already assigned but not passed will be removed. 
aliases: usercertificate     validate_certs  boolean    
Choices: no 
yes ←    This only applies if ipa_prot is https. If set to no, the SSL certificates will not be validated. This should only set to no used on personally controlled sites using self-signed certificates.     Examples - name: Ensure host is present
