24.2. Using Ansible to add multiple IdM groups in a single task


You can use the ansible-freeipa ipagroup module to add, modify, and delete multiple Identity Management (IdM) user groups with a single Ansible task. For that, use the groups option of the ipagroup module.

Using the groups option, you can also specify multiple group variables that only apply to a particular group. Define this group by the name variable, which is the only mandatory variable for the groups option.

Complete this procedure to ensure the presence of the sysops and the appops groups in IdM in a single task. Define the sysops group as a nonposix group and the appops group as an external group.

Prerequisites

  • On the control node:

    • You are using Ansible version 2.15 or later.
    • You have installed the ansible-freeipa package.
    • The example assumes that in the ~/MyPlaybooks/ directory, you have created an Ansible inventory file with the fully-qualified domain name (FQDN) of the IdM server.
    • The example assumes that the secret.yml Ansible vault stores your ipaadmin_password and that you have access to a file that stores the password protecting the secret.yml file.
  • The target node, that is the node on which the freeipa.ansible_freeipa module is executed, is part of the IdM domain as an IdM client, server or replica.

Procedure

  1. Create your Ansible playbook file add-nonposix-and-external-groups.yml with the following content:

    ---
    - name: Playbook to add nonposix and external groups
      hosts: ipaserver
      vars_files:
      - /home/user_name/MyPlaybooks/secret.yml
    
      tasks:
      - name: Add nonposix group sysops and external group appops
        freeipa.ansible_freeipa.ipagroup:
          ipaadmin_password: "{{ ipaadmin_password }}"
          groups:
          - name: sysops
            nonposix: true
          - name: appops
            external: true
  2. Run the playbook:

    $ ansible-playbook --vault-password-file=password_file -v -i <path_to_inventory_directory>/hosts <path_to_playbooks_directory>/add-nonposix-and-external-groups.yml
