I want to mount SSHFS filesystem as a root user without reboot as temporarily as sure as permanently.
- Temporary mount may be done with sshfs command. So, here is example when all credentials and connection parameters (port, user, identity file) stored in root user ssh config.
`
`
- name: mount sshfs immediately
command: “sshfs sftp.example.ru
/mnt/example/sftp/ -o allow_other”
become_user: root
tags: - mount
- temporary
`
`
This command doesn’t make out any mistake (‘changed’ status), but also it doesn’t do anything. Fuse-SSHFS filesystem isn’t mounting. When I’m executing the following command from the shell…
sudo sshfs sftp.example.ru:/ /mnt/example/sftp/ -o allow_other
…it perfectly works. Also tried to built in sudo to the command in task for full compatibility and it doesn’t work too. What else can I do to execute the command as a root user?
- Permanently filesystem should be mounted by means of “mount” module. My implementation
`
`
- name: mount sshfs permanently
mount:
name: /mnt/example/sftp/
src: sftp.example.ru
fstype: fuse.sshfs
opts:
“rw,noexec,nosuid,nodev,idmap=user,
follow_symlinks,allow_other,
default_permissions,uid=1000,gid=1000”
state: present
tags: mount
`

It works pretty straightforward, converting this task to the description of filesystem finally writing to /etc/fstab. But! Unfortunately it’s not idempotent. Mount module with 2 role runs will write the same filesystem description twice. Should it work this way?
So, probably all of them - my mistakes. But I didn’t get any information about the root cause. That’s would be great if anyone faced with such problem and figured out how to fix this.
