Allows one to run different config-sync actions. These actions allow you to manually sync your configuration across multiple BIG-IPs when those devices are in an HA pair.
- name: Sync configuration from device to group bigip_configsync_actions: device_group: "foo-group" sync_device_to_group: yes server: "lb01.mydomain.com" user: "admin" password: "secret" validate_certs: no delegate_to: localhost
- name: Sync configuration from most recent device to the current host bigip_configsync_actions: device_group: "foo-group" sync_most_recent_to_device: yes server: "lb01.mydomain.com" user: "admin" password: "secret" validate_certs: no delegate_to: localhost
- name: Perform an initial sync of a device to a new device group bigip_configsync_actions: device_group: "new-device-group" sync_device_to_group: yes server: "lb01.mydomain.com" user: "admin" password: "secret" validate_certs: no delegate_to: localhost
provider: description: - A dict object containing connection details. suboptions: auth_provider: description: - Configures the auth provider for to obtain authentication tokens from the remote device. - This option is really used when working with BIG-IQ devices. type: str password: aliases: - pass - pwd description: - The password for the user account used to connect to the BIG-IP. - You may omit this option by setting the environment variable C(F5_PASSWORD). required: true type: str server: description: - The BIG-IP host. - You may omit this option by setting the environment variable C(F5_SERVER). required: true type: str server_port: default: 443 description: - The BIG-IP server port. - You may omit this option by setting the environment variable C(F5_SERVER_PORT). type: int ssh_keyfile: description: - Specifies the SSH keyfile to use to authenticate the connection to the remote device. This argument is only used for I(cli) transports. - You may omit this option by setting the environment variable C(ANSIBLE_NET_SSH_KEYFILE). type: path timeout: description: - Specifies the timeout in seconds for communicating with the network device for either connecting or sending commands. If the timeout is exceeded before the operation is completed, the module will error. type: int transport: choices: - cli - rest default: rest description: - Configures the transport connection to use when connecting to the remote device. type: str user: description: - The username to connect to the BIG-IP with. This user must have administrative privileges on the device. - You may omit this option by setting the environment variable C(F5_USER). required: true type: str validate_certs: default: true description: - If C(no), SSL certificates are not validated. Use this only on personally controlled sites using self-signed certificates. - You may omit this option by setting the environment variable C(F5_VALIDATE_CERTS). type: bool type: dict version_added: '2.5' version_added_collection: f5networks.f5_modules device_group: description: - The device group that you want to perform config-sync actions on. required: true overwrite_config: choices: - true - false default: false description: - Indicates that the sync operation overwrites the configuration on the target. sync_device_to_group: choices: - true - false description: - Specifies that the system synchronizes configuration data from this device to other members of the device group. In this case, the device will do a "push" to all the other devices in the group. This option is mutually exclusive with the C(sync_group_to_device) option. sync_most_recent_to_device: choices: - true - false description: - Specifies that the system synchronizes configuration data from the device with the most recent configuration. In this case, the device will do a "pull" from the most recently updated device. This option is mutually exclusive with the C(sync_device_to_group) options.
