# rubrik\_assign\_physical\_host\_fileset

## rubrik\_assign\_physical\_host\_fileset

Assign a fileset to a Linux, Unix or Windows machine. If you have multiple filesets with identical names, you will need to populate the filesets properties to find a specific match. Filesets with identical names and properties are not supported.

`Requirement: Rubrik Python SDK (pip install rubrik_cdm)`

## Example

```yaml
- rubrik_assign_physical_host_fileset:
    hostname: 'ansible-tower'
    fileset_name: 'all-files'
    operating_system: Linux
    sla_name: 'Gold'
```

### Common

| Name       | Description                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                  | Default |
| ---------- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ | ------- |
| node\_ip   | The DNS hostname or IP address of the Rubrik cluster. By defeault, the module will attempt to read this value from the rubrik\_cdm\_node\_ip environment variable. If this environment variable is not present it will need to be manually specified here or in the \`provider' parameter.                   |         |
| password   | The password used to authenticate the connection to the Rubrik cluster. By defeault, the module will attempt to read this value from the rubrik\_cdm\_password environment variable. If this environment variable is not present it will need to be manually specified here or in the \`provider' parameter. |         |
| username   | The username used to authenticate the connection to the Rubrik cluster. By defeault, the module will attempt to read this value from the rubrik\_cdm\_username environment variable. If this environment variable is not present it will need to be manually specified here or in the \`provider' parameter. |         |
| api\_token | The api token used to authenticate the connection to the Rubrik cluster. By defeault, the module will attempt to read this value from the rubrik\_cdm\_token environment variable. If this environment variable is not present it will need to be manually specified here or in the \`provider' parameter.   |         |
| provider   | Convenience method that allows all connection arguments (`node_ip',`username', \`password') to be passed as a dict object. By default, the module will attempt to read these parameters from the rubrik\_cdm\_node\_ip, rubrik\_cdm\_username, and rubrik\_cdm\_password environment variables.              |         |

| Note: The `username` and `password` must be supplied together and may not be provided if the `api_token` variable is present |
