Config module

Description

The config module allows the setting of global config parameters within IPA. If no parameters are specified it returns the list of all current parameters.

The config module is as compatible as possible to the Ansible upstream ipa_config module, but adds many additional parameters

Features

  • IPA server configuration management

Supported FreeIPA Versions

FreeIPA versions 4.4.0 and up are supported by the ipaconfig module.

Some variables are only supported on newer versions of FreeIPA. Check Variables section for details.

Requirements

Controller

  • Ansible version: 2.14+

Node

  • Supported FreeIPA version (see above)

Usage

Example inventory file

[ipaserver]
ipaserver.test.local

Example playbook to read config options:

---
- name: Playbook to handle global config options
  hosts: ipaserver
  become: true
  tasks:
    - name: return current values of the global configuration options
      ipaconfig:
        ipaadmin_password: password
      register: result
    - name: display default login shell
      debug:
        msg: '{{ result.config.defaultshell }}'

    - name: ensure defaultloginshell and maxusernamelength are set as required
      ipaconfig:
        ipaadmin_password: password
        defaultshell: /bin/bash
        maxusername: 64

Example playbook to set global configuration options:

---
- name: Playbook to ensure some config options are set
  hosts: ipaserver
  become: true
  tasks:
    - name: set defaultlogin and maxusername
      ipaconfig:
        ipaadmin_password: password
        defaultlogin: /bin/bash
        maxusername: 64

Example playbook to enable SID and generate users and groups SIDs:

---
- name: Playbook to ensure SIDs are enabled and users and groups have SIDs
  hosts: ipaserver
  become: no
  gather_facts: no

  tasks:
    - name: Enable SID and generate users and groups SIDS
      ipaconfig:
        ipaadmin_password: SomeADMINpassword
        enable_sid: yes
        add_sids: yes

Example playbook to change IPA domain NetBIOS name:

---
- name: Playbook to change IPA domain netbios name
  hosts: ipaserver
  become: no
  gather_facts: no

  tasks:
    - name: Set IPA domain netbios name
      ipaconfig:
        ipaadmin_password: SomeADMINpassword
        enable_sid: yes
        netbios_name: IPADOM
