STEPS TO REPRODUCE

  - name: Run svcinfo lvvolumesnapshot
      ibm.storage_virtualize.ibm_svcinfo_command:
        command:  "svcinfo lsvolumesnapshot -filtervalue snapshot_name:ansible_bootvol_test2rgy "
        clustername: "cluster1"
        username: "{{fs95_admin}}"
        password: "{{admin_pass}}"
        log_path: /tmp/ansible.log

EXPECTED RESULTS

We expect to be able to list volume snapshots with the same filter capability as the CLI.

ACTUAL RESULTS

fatal: [localhost]: FAILED! => {"changed": false, "msg": "'filtervalue' is not supported in command."}

Please note that filtervalue is not directly support via ibm_svcinfo_command module.
A new feature has been added in ibm_svc_info module to ues the filtervalue.
Kindly use the following task, and let us know the feedback.

• name: Run svcinfo lvvolumesnapshot
  ibm.storage_virtualize.ibm_svc_info:
  clustername: "cluster1"
  username: "{{fs95_admin}}"
  password: "{{admin_pass}}"
  gather_subset: volumesnapshot
  filtervalue: "snapshot_name:ansible_bootvol_test2rgy"
  log_path: /tmp/ansible.log
