set adv with na_ontap_rest_cli

Hi -- I am wondering how to convert this functioning Ansible snippet into the REST version? TIA!

- name: run vserver cifs options modify is-netbios-over-tcp-enabled false na_ontap_command: command: - set adv; - vserver cifs options modify -vserver {{ item.name }} -is-netbios-over-tcp-enabled false return_dict: yes <<: *login with_items: - "{{ svm }}" register: command_result tags: [command,cifs-security]

This seems to work ... it will always show as 'changed' since there's no idempotence but that shouldn't be a problem. The module handles the advanced privilege setting.

I assume you meant this module (na_ontap_rest_cli) and not a straight REST CLI call you'd make from code. If you did mean from code then you'd use the /private/cli API.

gather_facts: no collections: - netapp.ontap module_defaults: group/netapp.ontap.netapp_ontap: hostname: xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx username: admin password: Netapp1! https: true validate_certs: false vars: svm: - { name: "svmCifsData" } tasks: - name: REST CLI netapp.ontap.na_ontap_rest_cli: command: 'vserver/cifs/options' verb: 'PATCH' params: vserver: "{{ item.name }}" body: {'is-netbios-over-tcp-enabled': false} with_items: "{{ svm }}" loop_control: label: "{{ item.name }}" register: result tags: [command,cifs-security] - debug: var: result

Thanks @JohnChampion ! Good to know that the module will auto-handle the privilege issue.
