Ansible Collection - ibt23sec5.system_show

Prerequisites

At first you have to install the psutil python module on each node:

pip install psutil

Or ensure the installation via pip play before:

---
- name: Install psutil
  pip:
    name: psutil
...

Modules

system_facts

Retrieves several facts about operating system, actual state and configuration:

• CPU usage
• memory usage
• disk usage
• network connections
• running processes including children

Options

• subsets: List of available subsets; returns all if empty Accepted subsets: - boot_time - cpu_count - cpu_freq - cpu_percent - cpu_stats - cpu_times - cpu_times_percent - disk_io_counters - disk_partitions - disk_usage - hosts - net_connections - net_if_addrs - net_if_stats - net_io_counters - pids - resolv_conf - sensors_battery - sensors_fans - sensors_temperatures - swap_memory - users - virtual_memory

• pid_columns: List of columns for pids subset (default values: pid, name, username) Accepted columns: - children - cpu_affinity - cwd - threads - username - environ - uids - exe - memory_full_info - connections - cpu_percent - open_files - memory_percent - cmdline - name - num_threads - io_counters - nice - num_ctx_switches - terminal - status - cpu_times - create_time - gids - ppid - ionice - cpu_num - pid - memory_info - num_fds - memory_maps

• net_connections_kind: Filters connection types related net_connections subset (default value: inet) Accepted subsets: - inet - inet4 - inet6 - tcp - tcp4 - tcp6 - udp - udp4 - udp6 - unix - all

Usage

---
- host: all
  collections:
    - ibt23sec5.system_show
  tasks:
    # Returns all system facts
    - name: Get all system facts
      system_facts:

    # Returns only cpu_percent and cpu_times subsets
    - name: Get CPU metrics
      system_facts:
        subsets:
          - cpu_percent
          - cpu_times
