SNMPv3 users - Idempotency issue

[ClaireHayard]

Scenario/Intent

Hello,

I am creating SNMPv3 users via an Ansible task however running the same code twice with the same user input leads to an error.

main.yml

- name: Create snmpv3 users
  oneview_appliance_device_snmp_v3_users:
    config: "{{ config }}"
    state: present
    data:
        userName: "{{ username }}"
        securityLevel: "{{ security_level }}"
        authenticationProtocol: "{{ authentication_protocol }}"
        authenticationPassphrase: "{{ authentication_passphrase }}"
        privacyProtocol: "{{ privacy_protocol }}"
        privacyPassphrase: "{{ privacy_passphrase }}"
  delegate_to: localhost

Environment Details

• OneView Ansible Collection: v6.6.0
• OneView Appliance Version: 6.10
• Ansible version: 2.9.6
• Python version: 3.8.10

Expected Result

We have idempotency when we run the same playbook with the same SNMPv3 user input data multiple times.

Actual Result

TASK [snmpv3 : Create snmpv3 users] ******************************************************************************************
An exception occurred during task execution. To see the full traceback, use -vvv.

Hi Claire, I ran the same code multiple times (oneview_appliance_device_snmp_v3_users) and I am not running in to any errors. Below is the output I got. TASK [hpe.oneview.oneview_appliance_device_snmp_v3_users : Creating the SNMPv3 user for automation] **** ok: [localhost -> localhost]

TASK [hpe.oneview.oneview_appliance_device_snmp_v3_users : Creating another SNMPv3 user for automation] **** ok: [localhost -> localhost]

PLAY RECAP ***** localhost : ok=8 changed=3 unreachable=0 failed=0 skipped=0 rescued=0 ignored=0

Please let me know more details to help you on this.

Hello @alisha-k-kalladassery,

I tested the code again with the new provider version and it doesn't end with an error however we still have an idempotency issue it seems.

First run of the code:

TASK [create the user] *********************************************************
changed: [localhost] => (item={'username': 'user1', 'security_level': 'Authentication and privacy', 'authentication_protocol': 'SHA1', 'authentication_passphrase': '********', 'privacy_protocol': 'AES-128', 'privacy_passphrase': '*************'})

PLAY RECAP *********************************************************************
localhost                  : ok=2    changed=1    unreachable=0    failed=0    skipped=0    rescued=0    ignored=0

Second run of the code:

TASK [create the user] *********************************************************
changed: [localhost] => (item={'username': 'user1', 'security_level': 'Authentication and privacy', 'authentication_protocol': 'SHA1', 'authentication_passphrase': '********', 'privacy_protocol': 'AES-128', 'privacy_passphrase': '*************'})

PLAY RECAP *********************************************************************
localhost                  : ok=2    changed=1    unreachable=0    failed=0    skipped=0    rescued=0    ignored=0
