Check HA status

[acbrigan]

I'm looking for a way to check the HA status of a node and only run certain tasks if the node is primary. Is there already a way to do this?

The netscaler.adc ansible collection is yet to have _info modules. This is being tracked by #296 and #372.

However, the previous citrix.adc module had citrix_adc_nitro_info module. You can use it till the same is supported in netscaler.adc

Example playbook

- hosts: localhost
  gather_facts: False
  tasks:
    - name: Retrieve info
      delegate_to: localhost
      citrix.adc.citrix_adc_nitro_info:
        nsip: "{{ nsip }}"
        nitro_user: "{{ nitro_user }}"
        nitro_pass: "{{ nitro_pass }}"
        validate_certs: no
        endpoint: hanode
        args:
          id: 0
      register: result

    - name: Print HA State
      debug:
        msg: "{{ result['nitro_info'][0]['state'] }}"

This works for me. Thank you!
