A list of up to 4 alternate NTP servers. These may include IPv4, IPv6 or FQDNs. Invalid IP addresses will cause the module to fail. No validation is performed for FQDNs.

If more than 4 servers are provided, only the first 4 unique nameservers will be used.

if no servers are given a default of 0.pool.ntp.org will be used.

private_key_file

Path to the PEM RSA private key used to sign an identity token, as an alternative to api_token.

Notes

Note

  • You must set PUREFB_URL and PUREFB_API environment variables if fb_url and api_token arguments are not passed to the module directly

  • Token-based authentication (id_token, or private_key_file with client_id, key_id, issuer and username) may be used as an alternative to api_token, and requires a matching API Client registered on the array via everpure.flashblade.purefb_apiclient
