Examples
# Following playbook creates, rebuilds instances, resizes and then deletes a MIG. # Notes: # - Two valid Instance Templates must exist in your GCE project in order to run # this playbook. Change the fields to match the templates used in your # project. # - The use of the 'pause' module is not required, it is just for convenience. - name: Managed Instance Group Example hosts: localhost gather_facts: False tasks: - name: Create MIG community.google.gce_mig: name: ansible-mig-example zone: us-central1-c state: present size: 1 template: my-instance-template-1 named_ports: - name: http port: 80 - name: foobar port: 82 - name: Pause for 30 seconds ansible.builtin.pause: seconds: 30 - name: Recreate MIG Instances with Instance Template change. community.google.gce_mig: name: ansible-mig-example zone: us-central1-c state: present template: my-instance-template-2-small recreate_instances: yes - name: Pause for 30 seconds ansible.builtin.pause: seconds: 30 - name: Resize MIG community.google.gce_mig: name: ansible-mig-example zone: us-central1-c state: present size: 3 - name: Update MIG with Autoscaler community.google.gce_mig: name: ansible-mig-example zone: us-central1-c state: present size: 3 template: my-instance-template-2-small recreate_instances: yes autoscaling: enabled: yes name: my-autoscaler policy: min_instances: 2 max_instances: 5 cool_down_period: 37 cpu_utilization: target: .39 load_balancing_utilization: target: 0.4 - name: Pause for 30 seconds ansible.builtin.pause: seconds: 30 - name: Delete MIG community.google.gce_mig: name: ansible-mig-example zone: us-central1-c state: absent autoscaling: enabled: no name: my-autoscaler
