Support for SSL certificate authentication in addition to password
The ONTAP Ansible modules currently require a username/password combination to authenticate with ONTAPI or REST APIs. It is now possible to use SSL certificate authentication with ONTAPI or REST. You will first need to install a SSL certificate in ONTAP, see for instance the first part of: https://netapp.io/2016/11/08/certificate-based-authentication-netapp-manageability-sdk-ontap/ The applications that need to be authorized for cert are ontapi and http.

The new cert_filepath, key_filepath options enable SSL certificate authentication. This is mutually exclusive with using username and password.

ONTAP does not support cert authentication for console, so this is not supported for na_ontap_command.

SSL certificate authentication requires python2.7 or 3.x.

New Options
na_ontap_disks: disk_type option allows to assign specified type of disk.
na_ontap_firmware_upgrade: ignore timeout when downloading image unless fail_on_502_error is set to true.
na_ontap_info: desired_attributes advanced feature to select which fields to return.
na_ontap_info: use_native_zapi_tags to disable the conversion of '' to '-' for attribute keys.
na_ontap_rest_info: fields options to request specific fields from subset.
na_ontap_software_update: stabilize_minutes option specifies number of minutes needed to stabilize node before update.
na_ontap_snapmirror: now performs restore with optional field source_snapshot for specific snapshot or uses latest.
na_ontap_ucadapter: pair_adapters option allows specifying the list of adapters which also need to be offline.
na_ontap_user: authentication_password option specifies password for the authentication protocol of SNMPv3 user.
na_ontap_user: authentication_protocol option specifies authentication protocol fo SNMPv3 user.
na_ontap_user: engine_id option specifies authoritative entity's EngineID for the SNMPv3 user.
na_ontap_user: privacy_password option specifies password for the privacy protocol of SNMPv3 user.
na_ontap_user: privacy_protocol option specifies privacy protocol of SNMPv3 user.
na_ontap_user: remote_switch_ipaddress option specifies the IP Address of the remote switch of SNMPv3 user.
na_ontap_volume: check_interval option checks if a volume move has been completed and then waits this number of seconds before checking again.
na_ontap_volume: auto_remap_luns option controls automatic mapping of LUNs during volume rehost.
na_ontap_volume: force_restore option forces volume to restore even if the volume has one or more newer Snapshotcopies.
na_ontap_volume: force_unmap_luns option controls automatic unmapping of LUNs during volume rehost.
na_ontap_volume: from_vserver option allows volume rehost from one vserver to another.
na_ontap_volume: preserve_lun_ids option controls LUNs in the volume being restored will remain mapped and their identities preserved.
na_ontap_volume: snapshot_restroe option specifies name of snapshot to restore from.
all modules: cert_filepath, key_filepath to enable SSL certificate authentication (python 2.7 or 3.x).
Bug Fixes
na_ontap_firmware_upgrade: ignore timeout when downloading firmware images by default.
na_ontap_info: conversion from '-' to '' was not done for lists of dictionaries.
na_ontap_ntfs_dacl: example fix in documentation string.
na_ontap_snapmirror: could not delete all rules (bug in netapp_module).
na_ontap_volume: modify was invoked multiple times when once is enough.
na_ontap_volume: fix KeyError on 'style' when volume is of type: data-protection.
na_ontap_volume: wait_on_completion is supported with volume moves.
module_utils/netapp_module: cater for empty lists in get_modified_attributes().
module_utils/netapp_module: cater for lists with duplicate elements in compare_lists().
Example playbook
na_ontap_pb_install_SSL_certificate.yml: installing a self-signed SSL certificate, and enabling SSL certificate authentication.
Added REST support to existing modules
na_ontap_user: added REST support for ONTAP user creation, modification & deletion.
