Add support of NameChange class

Open ugos-as opened this issue 4 years ago • 0 comments

Dear Commvault team,

Using the current version of the CV ansible module, we don't manage to find a solution to properly rename the name of a client (client_name) using the Client class. We did manage to properly rename the host name and the display name of a client (using update_properties method as operation), but not the name of the client.

In cvpysdk existing modules, it exists the name_change module which contains the NameChange class. This class would perfectly match what we need to perform, but, as far as we understood, it's not usable by the current version of your ansible module.

Any possibility to allow it in a future release, or is there a workaround to make us able to properly rename clients (and not only display/host names) ? We're currently developing playbooks ang CI to input a list of hostnames to be decommissionned on our different Commcells, and one of the job is to fully rename the client computers.

Thank you in advance for your precious help !
