Hi Guys,
We have a setup wherein today we apply Export Policy per Qtree but while looking into Ansible modules i dont see option to apply Export policy to Qtree while creating a Qtree. I can only see export policy option available at Volume level.
Is it not available at Qtree level?

Hi Raj,
Looking at the latest module for Qtrees it appears to be possible to set an export policy using the "export_policy" property.

Thanks Matt for the reply. I added the "export_policy" property but getting below error.
$ ansible-playbook Qtree_Create_template.yml --extra-vars "@Qtree_Create_Variable.yml"

Hi Raj,
I tested it, here is an example playbook:
---
- hosts: localhost
gather_facts: false
name: na_ontap_qtree
vars:
login: &login
hostname: cluster1.testlab.local
username: admin
password: N0tMyP@ssw0rd!
https: yes
use_rest: Always
validate_certs: no
tasks:
- name: Create qtree
na_ontap_qtree:
export_policy: policy_001
flexvol_name: nfs_data_001
name: qtree_001
oplocks: enabled
security_style: unix
state: present
vserver: vserver2
<<: *login
When i run the playbook it works successfully.
[root@testux1 playbooks]# ansible-playbook qtree.yml
[WARNING]: provided hosts list is empty, only localhost is available. Note that the implicit localhost does not match 'all'
PLAY [na_ontap_qtree] *******************************************************************************************************************************************************************************
TASK [Create qtree qtree_001 in volume nfs_data_001 on vserver vserver4] ****************************************************************************************************************************

The storage shows the qtree created on the volume exported to the policy.
cluster1::> qtree show -vserver vserver2 -volume nfs_data_001 -qtree qtree_001 -instance
Vserver Name: vserver2
Volume Name: nfs_data_001
Qtree Name: qtree_001

Oplock Mode: enable
Unix Permissions: ---rwxr-xr-x
Qtree Id: 1
Qtree Status: normal
Export Policy: policy_001
Is Export Policy Inherited: false
It is possible, perhaps you need to update the module?
