Management Authorization

Do the modules support enabling "Enabling Authorization Roles"?

I looked at the set_mgmtazn_role_features role but it looked like to just defined a role and did not enable the authorization roles.

Problem with special string %{%s}t when calling update_reverseproxy_conf

Trying to port existing settings of "request-log-format" from older version to ISAM 9. The required string is

request-log-format = { \"seconds\": \"%{%s}t\" }

But the "%{%s}t" part always caused problem in "update_reverseproxy_conf". The yml file I used is as below:

---
- name: Run some commands
  hosts: all
  connection: local
  vars:
    username: "admin"
    password: "password1234"
    lmi_port: "443"
    log_level: "CRITICAL"
    force: True
    start_config_wait_time: 120
  roles:
    - role: update_reverseproxy_conf
      update_reverseproxy_conf_reverseproxy_id: "TestInstance"
      update_reverseproxy_conf_entries:
      - stanza_id: "logging"
        entry_id: "request-log-format"
        value_id: " \"seconds\": \"%{%s}t\" "

The error message is:

FAILED! => {
    "failed": true, 
    "msg": "[{u'entry_id': u'request-log-format', u'stanza_id': u'logging', u'value_id': u' \"seconds\": \"%{%s}t\" '}]: template error while templating string: Encountered unknown tag 's'.. String:  \"seconds\": \"%{%s}t\" "
}

If I remove the 2 "%"s then it works, but we need the specific string to be there as lots of log parsing program relies on the exact format to work properly. Also tried various escape characters but none can achieve what we need, some examples listed below:

1) " { \"seconds\": \"%{%s}t\" } "  error: Encountered unknown tag 's'
2) ' { \"seconds\": \"%{%s}t\" } '  error: Encountered unknown tag 's'
3) ' { \"seconds\": \"%{\%s}t\" } ' no error but with incorrect result extra back slash before %s)  request-log-format = { "seconds": "%{\%s}t" }
4) ' { \"seconds\": \"\%{%s}t\" } ' error: Encountered unknown tag 's'
5) " { \"seconds\": \"%{%%s}t\" } "  error: tag name expected
6) " { \"seconds\": \"%%{%s}t\" } "  error: tag name expected
7) '{% raw %}{ "seconds": "%{%s}t" }{% endraw %}'  error: Encountered unknown tag 's'
8) !unsafe ' { "seconds": "%{%s}t" } '  error: SyntaxError: invalid syntax MODULE FAILURE

Also tried below .yml but still failed

---
- name: Run some commands
  hosts: all
  connection: local
  vars:
    username: "admin"
    password: "password1234"
    lmi_port: "443"
    log_level: "CRITICAL"
    force: True
    start_config_wait_time: 120
    starter_value: " { \"seconds\": \"${$s}t\" } "       
  roles:
    - role: update_reverseproxy_conf
      update_reverseproxy_conf_reverseproxy_id: "TestInstance"
      update_reverseproxy_conf_entries:
      - stanza_id: "logging"
        entry_id: "request-log-format"
        value_id: "{{ starter_value | regex_replace('\\$','%') }}"

Can see the "regex_replace" part is working as the final "value_id" string has the "$" correctly changed to "%". The error message shown below is the same as before (Encountered unknown tag 's').

FAILED! => {
    "failed": true, 
    "msg": "{u'entry_id': u'request-log-format', u'stanza_id': u'logging', u'value_id': u' { \"seconds\": \"%{%s}t\" } '}: template error while templating string: Encountered unknown tag 's'.. String:  { \"seconds\": \"%{%s}t\" } "
}

Also raised a question in
stackoverflow but all of the suggestions received failed.

Plus, how do we know whether it's Ansible or ISAM or the isam-ansible-roles code that throws the error?

Please help. Thanks.

set_junction role calls the add junction function

In the set_junction role the action being called in main.yml is:

action: ibmsecurity.isam.web.reverse_proxy.junctions.add

Is there a reason why it doesn't call the ibmsecurity.isam.web.reverse_proxy.junctions.set function?

And if there is what is the correct role to use to call the set junction?

As a sub-question, why would there be an add_junction role? From what I understand the set function does the idempotence check & calls add if needed. Why would someone want to use add directly instead of using set?

Thanks !!

AAC Runtime Restart

When I make changes on the 'master' the "Restart AAC Runtime' handler will restart the runtime. But the other runtimes in the appliance cluster runtimes do not get restarted. Is there a way to call the 'Restart AAC Runtime' handler directly from a playbook and force it to restart to accomplish this?

Thanks

Role add_server_connection_ldap: syntax error

There is syntax error in the 'when' clause, i.e. a missing 'and'.

Will submit a pull request shortly.

(This is not an issue) but Just wanted to ask

So trying to create a test firewall step / playbook to checkout backend connections

Like to SSH into the OVA Appliance and run the tools command to test all network connections to the back end junctions etc.

Anyone been able to use an Ansible module to accomplish this?

Thanks

create_mgmt_root_dir wrong use of API

Hi,

The create_mgmt_root_dir Ansible role utilizes the following action:
ibmsecurity.isam.web.reverse_proxy.management_root.directory.create
This function has the following signature:
create(isamAppliance, instance_id, id, name, check_mode=False, force=False)

Upon executing a task using this role, I received the following trace:
[DEBUG] [ibmsecurity.appliance.ibmappliance] [_process_response():64] Text: [{\"name\":\"ISAM Base Appliance\",\"description\":\"IBM Security Access Manager Base Appliance\",\"id\":\"wga\",\"enabled\":\"True\"}]\n", "msg": "Error> action does not have the right set of arguments or there is a code bug! Options: isamAppliance=isam_server, force=False, instance_id=\"rp-demotest\", id=\"management/C\", filename=\"dirname\"", "name": "ibmsecurity.isam.web.reverse_proxy.management_root.directory.create"}

This is due to an incorrect mapping in the actual task: see here.

Which according to the API should use "name" instead of "filename".

I'll open a Pull Request in order to resolve this issue.

Kind regards,
Dries Eestermans

P.S.: A restart of the reverse proxy instance should also be issued, this will be added via the PR as well.

Can I use variable replacement inside of pdadmin command files

I have enough use cases where the variance is slight enough to need to externalize it, but to not want to maintain more vars

**pdadmin command file contents:

"server task {{ isam_server_instance }} list"**

ansible-playbook -i inventories/0-DFLT pdadmin.yml -v -e "da_name=jason_test execute_pdadmin_domain=Default9 isam_server_instance=jason_test-webseald-localhost" | sed 's/\n/\n/g'

It does the substitution and visually appears accurate, but I get a server not found message.

Thanks

add_federation SAML protocol

Hello,

we are testing use of 'add_federation' and getting an error returned for 'add_federation_templateName:'
The REST API documentation shows this is not a required value, but if is commented out the entire role is skipped. We also tried uncommenting and using 'SAML2_0' and also 'saml_post' for the template values and these cause the error at bottom of this post..
any ideas what we are doing wrong?

following is our parameters for the role:

Task name reference to AAC

Not the bigger issue on earth but the set of "xxx_reverseproxy_conf roles (add/delete/update) and also the role execute_isamcfg have "AAC" reference in their play name as can be reported in the following search result:

isam-ansible-roles\add_reverseproxy_conf\tasks\main.yml(2): - name: Configure Reverse Proxy for AAC (Updates)
isam-ansible-roles\delete_reverseproxy_conf\tasks\main.yml(1): - name: Configure Reverse Proxy for AAC (Deletes)
isam-ansible-roles\execute_isamcfg\tasks\rp_config_adds.yml(3): - name: Configure Reverse Proxy for AAC (Adds)
isam-ansible-roles\execute_isamcfg\tasks\rp_config_updates.yml(3): - name: Configure Reverse Proxy for AAC (Updates)
isam-ansible-roles\update_reverseproxy_conf\tasks\main.yml(2): - name: Configure Reverse Proxy for AAC (Updates)

Of course, these roles are very useful but not only for "AAC" reverse proxies but also for any reverse proxies that one can think off. When these roles run in playbooks their output can cause confusion if you know you have not integrated any AAC functionality yet.
I would volunteer to change those names to something more generic. I propose replacing “Configure Reverse Proxy for AAC (xxx)” with “Configure Reverse Proxy stanza entries (xxx)”
Any thought?

activate_module role not enforcing module names

Per the doc for the activate_module role, the valid module names are "wga", "mga", and "federation". However, I observed that if I pass in a name other than those (e.g. "fed") then the module will still be activated successfully. However, if I re-run the same role, it will throw an error saying that the module is already activated and the play will terminate. This breaks idempotency for this role.

## This works for initial activation, but fails if module is already activated
- role: activate_module
  activate_module_id  : "fed"
  activate_module_code: "{{ lookup('file', '~/isam_federation_code.txt') }}"

If I use the correct module name ("federation" in this case) then the error will be successfully ignored.

## This runs successfully every time
- role: activate_module
  activate_module_id  : "federation"
  activate_module_code: "{{ lookup('file', '~/isam_federation_code.txt') }}"

IMO the module should never have been activated using an incorrect name in the first place. This would force the playbook author to use the correct name from the start instead of discovering their error much later on.

Role add_oauth_definition: add OIDC support (how to)

Now that the ibmsecurity module supports OIDC for API Definition (see IBM-Security/ibmsecurity#58 for ref), I am looking to provide the required customizations to the role 'add_oauth_definition' to support the additionnal 9.0.4 OIDC API Definition parameters, and simply looking for advise.

Should we A) let the playbook developper using the role 'add_oauth_definition' build this unique oidc json object (see below) and pass it as a single parameter to the role, or B) add in the role every required individual parameters and build the oidc json object internaly in the role ?

   "oidc":{
     "enabled":true,
     "alg":"RS256",
     "db":"rt_profile_keys",
     "cert":"server",
     "poc":"https://www.myWebSEAL.com",
     "lifetime":3600,
     "enc":{
       "enabled":false
     },
     "attributeSources":[
       {
         "attributeName": "exampleAttribute",
         "attributeSourceId": "1"
       }
     ]
   }

Addition of new stanza

Sometime it is necessary to add some stanza to ISAM RP configuration files (for junction related settings or cred attributes setup) as it is described in the ISAM federation cookbook.

So we have developed a specialized role for dealing with the addition of non-existing stanza to ISAM RP configuration files (called add_reverseproxy_conf_stanza using stanza.py). But I wonder if instead we should not extend the implementation of the existing add_reverseproxy_conf role to have it detect automatically if entries/values pairs are to be added/updated for stanza that are not yet defined, and proceed with adding those automatically. Similarly, the update_reverseproxy_conf could be updated similarly.

Extending the roles such as add_reverseproxy_conf (as opposed to provide a new one) would help limit the proliferation of small utilities roles and help playbook developer get the job done more easily.
Should update_reverseproxy_conf deserve the same treatment?

What are your thoughts?

Any "add_junction" working example? Keep getting error "action does not have the right set of arguments or there is a code bug"

Hi need some help. Built ISAM 9 VM following "ISAM9 Federation Cookbook", and was able to use ansible on docker to do lots of things following "isam-ansible-playbook-sample" such as run pdadmin commands, create snapshot, activate module, create reverse proxy,...etc.

However, "add_junction" always fail with error "action does not have the right set of arguments or there is a code bug" as shown below. Also tried just use "TestInstance" as "add_junction_reverseproxy_id", but still gets same error.

If I commented out the "add_junction_reverseproxy_id" line then it just said "skipping" and nothing happened.

Any idea what have I done wrong? Or is there any working example "add_junction" available? Thanks.

Make registered variable name configurable in search_mapping_rule

The search_mapping_rule role currently registers the resulting mapping rule ID in a variable which is always called "search_mapping_rule". This causes issues if you need to lookup multiple mapping rule IDs for a single task (i.e. if you are creating a module chain which uses more than one mapping rule, as we frequently do). I have shown in my local environment that by making the name of the registered variable configurable, it is possible to lookup multiple mapping rules within a single task.

Example of the modification to the search_mapping_rule role:

- name: Search for a Mapping Rule
  isam:
    appliance: "{{ inventory_hostname }}"
    username:  "{{ username }}"
    password:  "{{ password }}"
    lmi_port:  "{{ lmi_port }}"
    log:       "{{ log_level }}"
    force:     "{{ force }}"
    action: ibmsecurity.isam.aac.mapping_rules.search
    isamapi:
      name: "{{ search_mapping_rule_name }}"
  when: search_mapping_rule_name is defined
  register: "{{ search_mapping_rule_register }}"

Example task from playbook:

- name: Add Module Chains
  hosts: all
  connection: local
  roles:
    - role: search_mapping_rule
      search_mapping_rule_name: mapping-rule-1
      search_mapping_rule_register: map1

    - role: search_mapping_rule
      search_mapping_rule_name: mapping-rule-2
      search_mapping_rule_register: map2

    - role: add_module_chain
      module_chain_name: test-chain
      module_chain_template_name: test-chain-template
      module_chain_request_type: "http://docs.oasis-open.org/ws-sx/ws-trust/200512/Issue"
      module_chain_description: "Test"
      module_chain_token_type: "*"
      module_chain_issuer:
        address: "REGEXP: (.*/test-chain)"
      module_chain_applies_to:
        address: "REGEXP: (.*)"
      module_chain_properties:
        self:
          - name: map-01.map.rule.reference.ids
            value:
              - "{{ map1['data'] }}"
          - name: map-02.map.rule.reference.ids
            value:
              - "{{ map2['data'] }}
# OMITTED...

If this is acceptable, I will submit a pull request for this update.

add_partner incorrect indentation

Was testing "add_partner" and keep getting ParerError, after compared with the working "add_federation", noticed line 9-10 in "add_partner/tasks/main.yml" for "action:" and "isamapi:" both have different indentation when compared with "add_federation/tasks/main.yml". Created local copy of the roles, changed the indentation and confirmed working.

set_ldap_user_pw: AAC Restart required ?

Hi,

We have found that when using role 'set_ldap_user_pw' to set an existing embedded_ldap account's password (such as the one for easuser) that it only become effective after the AAC Runtime is restarted. This would be quick code change to add a "Runtime Restart" after the "Commit". But is it a good thing ? Woud there be cases where the AAC Runtime should not be restarted right away ?

Just looking for advise. Will test the code and submit a pull if I found that it resolves this behavior.

import_ca_certs role throws 500 Error

Hi When trying to import certificate using below playbook (attached playbook file) I am gettting below error.
This is just part of error logs - I am using ansible 2.3.1

Which escaping to use when passing special characters in pdadmin cmds

Probaby an easy one for you folks.

Submitting a pdadmin cmd which does not contain any special characters work fine:

domain create childDomain sec_master somepassword -desc "somedescription"

but when submitting a pdadmin cmd like the following, that contains a comma for instance, how should we pass it to the role 'execute_pdadmin_domain':

user import _tammon cn=someuser,secAuthority=Default

This is the results I am getting:

"[2018-01-28 19:30:32,946] [PID:15157 TID:140127864330048] [DEBUG] [ibmsecurity.appliance.ibmappliance] [_invoke_request():306] Input Data: {"admin_pwd": "passw0rd", "admin_domain": "Default", "commands": ["user import _tammon cn=someuser", "secAuthority=Default"], "admin_id": "sec_master"}",

Just above the ibmsecurity stack receives the cmd arladt splitted in 2 parts ...

""

Somewhere before it get's to python module, the pdadmin cmd gets splitted in 2 pieces which make it invalid for ISAM to process.

execute_pdadmin error handling

When executing a pdadmin cmd with the execute_pdadmin role and an error is captured, I obtained a syntax execution error because the ret_obj['data'] is undefined.

TASK [execute_pdadmin : Output of PDAdmin command execution] ***********************************************************************************************************
fatal: [stha9n0fw.iad.ca.inet]: FAILED! => {"msg": "The conditional check '(ret_obj is defined and 'result' in ret_obj['data'] and ret_obj|succeeded and (not ansible_check_mode))' failed. The error was: error while evaluating conditional ((ret_obj is defined and 'result' in ret_obj['data'] and ret_obj|succeeded and (not ansible_check_mode))): Unable to look up a name or access an attribute in template string ({% if (ret_obj is defined and 'result' in ret_obj['data'] and ret_obj|succeeded and (not ansible_check_mode)) %} True {% else %} False {% endif %}).\nMake sure your variable name does not contain invalid characters like '-': argument of type 'StrictUndefined' is not iterable\n\nThe error appears to have been in '/home/sygilber/isam_home/ansible/roles/isam-ansible-roles/execute_pdadmin/tasks/main.yml': line 22, column 3, but may\nbe elsewhere in the file depending on the exact syntax problem.\n\nThe offending line appears to be:\n\n\n- name: Output of PDAdmin command execution\n ^ here\n"}

When making some change in the play named "Output of PDAdmin command execution" to refer to ret_obj instead of ret_obj['data'] then the execution error is cleared.

Here is a summary of what would look like the modification if I would create a pull request.

But before I do that, I am looking for advise/comments if this is the right thing. Or it is possible that depending of the appliance version, the returned object is not structured the same way, or the version of ansible introcuces changes ? Here are details about the ansible stack we are running:

ansible 2.4.0.0

config reverse proxy federation role for lookup federation ID

the current reverse proxy federation role assumes that federation module is available on the reverse proxy server and searches for the federation ID on the reverse proxy instance and fails as there is no reverse proxy instance.

I have changed the appliance host variable in the task to get the role working but thats may not be a good idea. I guess we can define a new variable or do something similar to search mapping rule.

• name: Lookup a Federation ID - {{config_reverseproxy_federation_name}}
  isam:
  appliance: "{{ Policy_Server_inventory_hostname }}"
  username: "{{ username }}"
  password: "{{ password }}"
  lmi_port: "{{ lmi_port }}"
  log: "{{ log_level }}"
  force: "{{ force }}"

  isamapi:
  name: "{{ config_reverseproxy_federation_name }}"

Add node to cluster returns 500 code

Although I get a 500 error, it does add the node to the cluster.

Here is my playbook...

Build out entire environment

• name: Setup Reverse Proxy Appliance
  hosts: reverseproxy

  • role: add_cluster_node
    tags: ["cluster", "add"]
    add_cluster_node_signature_file: "./files/clustersign/primary.sign"

Here is the output from the screen.

import license support file

We have developed a role to import the support license file. We intent to share it but I was wondering if it should be named “import_license”, “apply_license”, or “install_license”. The actual python code and rest api documentation both refer to the act of “installing” a license whereas the appliance web help refers of “importing”. I don’t think that one can add numerous license file (although I never tried) so I was ruling out the “add” semantics. Open to comments. Will later track the pull request to this issue.

AAC Web Service server connection

Will submit in the coming days a role for adding Web Service server connection into the AAC. Currently, only LDAP role exist. Will provide as well the counterpart python code candidate implementation.

WGA entry set could not remove entry value with special characters

While calling set_reverseproxy_conf role to set 'request-log-format', it failed when tried to remove the default value which has '%' character:

'HTTP Return code: 500', u'<H1>SRVE0232E: Internal Server Error. <br> Exception Message: [URLDecoder: Illegal hex characters in escape (%) pattern - For input string: \"h%\"]</H1><BR><H3>URLDecoder: Illegal hex characters in escape (%) pattern - For input string: \"h%\"</H3><BR><I>IBM WebSphere Application Server</I>' 

I suspect that the input was not properly URLEncoded when calling the API to delete the entry.

mapping rule questions

Hello, i have questions around upload_mapping_rule, set_mapping_rule

1. upload_mapping_rule - so this process works for the first time, say i named test, OAUTH and test.js mapping rule js file . If i try to upload another mapping rule with test2,OAUTH and same test.js mapping rule js file it doesnt work.
2. set_mapping_rule - do you have any template available to make this role work? i tried but not able to update any of the existing mapping rule. if you have any templates which can show how to update existing mapping rules it would be great.

create reverse proxy - Create Common Web Root for other than default Domain

the Current role for setup_common_root.yml does not have a variable to specify if we have to create the web root in a different domain.

added a new variable to get it working in my environment, may be there are better ways to handle it.

• name: Create Common Web Root
  isamadmin:
  appliance: "{{ inventory_hostname }}"
  username: "{{ username }}"
  password: "{{ password }}"
  lmi_port: "{{ lmi_port }}"
  log: "{{ log_level }}"
  isamuser: "{{ create_reverseproxy_admin_id }}"
  isampwd: "{{ create_reverseproxy_admin_pwd }}"
  isamdomain: "{{ create_pdadmin_domain }}"
  commands:
  • "object create /WebSEAL/{{common_web_root}} "{{common_web_root_description}}" 5 ispolicyattachable yes"
    ignore_errors: true
    when: common_web_root is defined and create_reverseproxy_admin_id is defined and create_reverseproxy_admin_pwd is defined

execute_pdadmin - I don't see an override for the 'Default' domain

Trying to run execute_pdadmin admin but for this reverse proxy instance we have a unique domain = Default9

ibmsecurity/ibmsecurity/isam/web/runtime/pdadmin.py - Seems to have the parameter available
I don't see in isamadmin.py where it loads that property from the dictionary
And the vars aren't exposed through the roles

This may be intentional so I wanted to at least ask the question.

Feature(s) that would be nice to have

I know the APIs aren't hard for these but these playbooks make it so easy.

1. Deploy / Rollback Pending Changes
2. Start / Stop / Restart Reverse Proxy Instance
3. Delete a Reverse Proxy Instance

set_advanced_tuning_parameter comment parameter

We could consider support in this existing role the parameter 'comment' for tuning parameter set (key,value, comment). The ibmmodule python code does support it already so should not be a big deal implementing it in the existing role.

Will come up with propose adjustement (PR) in the coming days.

set_cluster_config: AAC Runtime not restarted

When HVDB changes occur, they are not effective automatically since the role is not notifying "Restart AAC Runtime" handler.

On the other hand, if the role would notify "Restart AAC Runtime", it would always initiate a restart of the AAC Runtime even when other cluster changes occured unrelated to the DB occured.

So I don't know what is best approach.

import personal certificate and set it as default

i want to import a personal certificate on appliance and and set it as default. when i saw what you already made there is the ansible role (import_personal_cert) to import a personal certificate without property to make it as default. I searched inside the python code of IBMSecurity aund found the method "set" in ibmsecurity/ibmsecurity/isam/base/ssl_certificates/personal_certificate.py to make a personal cert as default but i'm not up to create a new role just to call this method. so i think tht i can create a new python method to import and set sametime a personal cert ...... wht are you thinking about it ?

Role add_oauth_client: add PKCE & 9.0.4 support

Will provide updates to the existing role 'add_oauth_client' to add support for 9.0.4 parameters

add_junction or set_junction refer to server_uid

These 2 roles use "server_uid" instead of "server_uuid" and this caused the roles to fail with message "action does not have the right set of arguments or there is a code bug!".

Will submit a fix/pull request eventually for this. I recall having seen earlier this year changes in ibmsecurity regarding server_uuid updates in the code.

Any thoughs on this issue as to why the old wrong paramater may still be refered in roles ? A simple over-loooked issue or a backward appliance (rest api) compatibility issue ?

Thanks

update_reverseproxy_conf does not handle '%' in entry value correctly

In the playbook snippet below we try to set the request-log-format to a string that contains non-alphanumerical characters such as '{' '%':

- role: update_reverseproxy_conf
      update_reverseproxy_conf_reverseproxy_id: "{{ reverseproxy_instance_name }}"
      update_reverseproxy_conf_entries:
        - stanza_id: "logging"
          entry_id: "request-log-format"
          value_id: "TS:%{%Y-%m-%dT%H:%M:%S}t C:%a I:%A U:%{AZN_CRED_PRINCIPAL_NAME}C AL:%{AUTHENTICATION_LEVEL}C SI:%{tagvalue_session_index}C T:%d M:%m ST:%s B:%B F:%F URL:%U"

The error is

template error while templating string: Encountered unknown tag 'Y'.. String: TS:%{%Y-%m-%dT%H:%M:%S}t C:%a I:%A U:%{AZN_CRED_PRINCIPAL_NAME}C AL:%{AUTHENTICATION_LEVEL}C SI:%{tagvalue_session_index}C T:%d M:%m ST:%s B:%B F:%F URL:%U"

We have tried different ways to escape the string, none of them seems to work.

I was able to make it work with '!unsafe' directive when make the API call directly:

- name: update logging format
  isam:
      appliance: "{{ ISAM_M1_INTERFACE }}"
      password: "{{ ISAM_admin_pw }}"
      action: ibmsecurity.isam.web.reverse_proxy.configuration.entry.add
      isamapi: 
          reverseproxy_id: "{{reverseproxy_id}}"
          stanza_id: "logging"
          entries: [[ 'request-log-format', !unsafe 'TS:%{%Y-%m-%dT%H:%M:%S}t C:%a I:%A U:%{AZN_CRED_PRINCIPAL_NAME}C AL:%{AUTHENTICATION_LEVEL}C SI:%{tagvalue_session_index}C T:%d M:%m ST:%s B:%B F:%F URL:%U' ]]

Note: the above API calls entry.add, not entry.update, it takes different input - JSON array entries vs entry_id and value_id

However, we were not able to use the roles to add/update/set the value with these special characters.

Deploy pending changes process

I would very much like to see a major overhaul of the deploy pending changes process to be consistent with the published REST API documentation. At the moment it appears that each deploy calls /restarts/commit_and_restart which isn't actually even documented in the REST API doc, and causes the LMI to be restarted (slow) every time.

What is supposed to happen is that you GET /isam/pending_changes to see if anything needs commiting, and if it does then PUT /isam/pending_changes. Then you need to introspect the response, and SELECTIVELY decide what to do next based on the returned result Integer, AND status bitmask.

There may also need to be some state management around remembering the last start time of the LMI and/or runtime to ensure that you wait until restarted services are actually restarted. This is not entirely easy, but when done right things are MUCH faster to configure, and everyone benefits.

Add new Point of Contact role

Will contibute a new role for adding a Point of Contact. It is only this week that we found why one wound want to create a new poc.

For now I have named it 'update_point_of_contact'. Of course it could be named also 'add_point_of_contact' but what I want to prevent is that we push the 2 version of the role 'add and update'. I check the ibmsecurity implementation and it supports both adding/updating when invoking the 'ibmsecurity.isam.fed.point_of_contact.set' method. Ansible is about idempotency and so we should not have to decide which add/update role to invoke when developping playbook.

Also, I am unsure if it should be commited right away in the new structure (base|aac|fed|web) commited last week. And if so, if it should fall under fed or aac category. Theorically it is bound to "fed" rest-api but it is used in both AAC and FED modules (LMI menus).

Comments welcomed.

inventory_hostname

So wanted to discuss a concept:

I am looking to reduce the knowledge our developers have about out environment and am looking to create an alias for the RP instance name so that is all they need to supply to execute playbooks

hosts file would be ~
test-myapp-0024 ansible_host=localhost da_name=test-myapp-0024

So this causes an issue in that the start_confg process is hard coded to inventory_hostname.

Just wanted to put this here and see what thoughts people have.

Thanks

execute_rp_op role task has extra braces

Currently execute_rp_op role has unbalanced braces
i.e.
with_items: "{{execute_rp_op_ids | default({}) }}}"

Snapshots

Is there a way to "not" take snapshots each time a commit is done? Seems this is a lot of overhead when it might be rarely needed, particuarly when configuring a new appliance from scratch.

Update RP Conf Role

The current role updates a current entry. However there are times when would like to "add" an entry to an existing stanza. (ie. logcfg=blah,blah,blah)

I tried creating a new role that uses the action ibmsecurity.isam.web.reverse_proxy.configuration.entry.add. This is the message i get.

"msg": "Error> action does not have the right set of arguments or there is a code bug!

Runtime parameter changes does not trigger AAC runtime re-start

Hi,

I would have assumed that it is necessary to invoke the handler "Restart AAC Runtime" when runtime parameters are applied and it triggers a change. But as it turn out, it does not. For instance, in the below test run, changing the parameter 'enable_sslv3" from True to False using Ansible only has the usual "Commit Changes" handler invoked. I can see in the role "set_runtime_tuning_parameter" that it is meant to only invoke the "Commit Changes".

Is it normal ? Maybe there is something I am not getting.
