This role facilitates the configuration of global logging attributes, and it supports the configuration of logging servers. This role is abstracted for dellos6, dellos9, and dellos10.

The Logging role requires an SSH connection for connectivity to a Dell EMC Networking device. You can use any of the built-in OS connection variables .

ansible-galaxy install Dell-Networking.dellos-logging

• Role is abstracted using the ansible_network_os variable that can take dellos9, dellos6, and dellos10 values
• If the dellos_cfg_generate variable is set to true, it generates the role configuration commands in a file
• Any role variable with a corresponding state variable set to absent negates the configuration of that variable
• Setting an empty value for any variable negates the corresponding configuration
• Variables and values are case-sensitive

dellos_logging keys

NOTE: Asterisk (*) denotes the default value if none is specified.

Ansible Dell EMC Networking roles require connection information to establish communication with the nodes in your inventory. This information can exist in the Ansible group_vars or host_vars directories or inventory, or in the playbook itself.

NOTE: Asterisk (*) denotes the default value if none is specified.

The dellos-logging role is built on modules included in the core Ansible code. These modules were added in Ansible version 2.2.0.

This example uses the dellos-logging role to completely set up logging servers. It creates a hosts file with the switch details and corresponding variables. The hosts file should define the ansible_network_os variable with corresponding Dell EMC networking OS name. When dellos_cfg_generate is set to true, the variable generates the configuration commands as a .part file in build_dir path. By default, the variable is set to false.
