Idempotency

All modules are idempotent with the exception of modules that change or set passwords. Due to security requirements exisitng passwords can be validated against and therefore will always be modified, even if there is no change.

Notes

The Pure Storage Ansible modules force all host and volume names to use kebab-case. Any parameters that use camelCase or PascalCase will be lowercased to ensure consistency across all modules.
