Facts

Now let collect facts from a F5 and store those facts into a json file.

We will need to make a new entry into our inventory file:

inventory group adc

 [adc]
 BigIp1 ansible_host=

f5.yml

 ---
 - name: F5 Facts
   hosts: [adc]
   gather_facts: false
   connection: local

   vars:
     provider:
        server:
        user: "f5guest"
        password: ""
        validate_certs: no

   tasks:

   - name: Gather F5 Info
     bigip_device_info:
       provider: "{{ provider }}"
       gather_subset:
         - all
     delegate_to: localhost
     register: bigip_fact_out

   - name: Copy facts to file
     copy:
       dest: facts.json
       content: "{{ bigip_fact_out }}"
