ovirt_networks - Module to manage logical networks in oVirt/RHV
New in version 2.3.
Synopsis
- Module to manage logical networks in oVirt/RHV
Requirements
The below requirements are needed on the host that executes this module.
- python >= 2.7
- ovirt-engine-sdk-python >= 4.2.4
Parameters
| Parameter | Choices/Defaults | Comments |
|---|---|---|
| auth required | Dictionary with values needed to create HTTP/HTTPS connection to oVirt: username[required] - The name of the user, something like admin@internal. Default value is set by OVIRT_USERNAME environment variable.password[required] - The password of the user. Default value is set by OVIRT_PASSWORD environment variable.url[required] - A string containing the base URL of the server, usually something like `https://server.example.com/ovirt-engine/api`. Default value is set by OVIRT_URL environment variable.token - Token to be used instead of login with username/password. Default value is set by OVIRT_TOKEN environment variable.insecure - A boolean flag that indicates if the server TLS certificate and host name should be checked.ca_file - A PEM file containing the trusted CA certificates. The certificate presented by the server will be verified using these CA certificates. If `ca_file` parameter is not set, system wide CA certificate store is used. Default value is set by OVIRT_CAFILE environment variable.kerberos - A boolean flag indicating if Kerberos authentication should be used instead of the default basic authentication.headers - Dictionary of HTTP headers to be added to each API call. | |
| clusters | List of dictionaries describing how the network is managed in specific cluster. name - Cluster name.assigned - true if the network should be assigned to cluster. Default is true.required - true if the network must remain operational for all hosts associated with this network.display - true if the network should marked as display network.migration - true if the network should marked as migration network.gluster - true if the network should marked as gluster network. | |
| comment | Comment of the network. | |
| data_center | Datacenter name where network reside. | |
| description | Description of the network. | |
| fetch_nested (added in 2.3) | If True the module will fetch additional data from the API. It will fetch IDs of the VMs disks, snapshots, etc. User can configure to fetch other attributes of the nested entities by specifying nested_attributes. | |
| label (added in 2.5) | Name of the label to assign to the network. | |
| mtu | Maximum transmission unit (MTU) of the network. | |
| name required | Name of the network to manage. | |
| nested_attributes (added in 2.3) | Specifies list of the attributes which should be fetched from the API. This parameter apply only when fetch_nested is true. | |
| poll_interval | Default: 3 | Number of the seconds the module waits until another poll request on entity status is sent. |
| state |
| Should the network be present or absent |
| timeout | Default: 180 | The amount of time in seconds the module should wait for the instance to get into desired state. |
| vlan_tag | Specify VLAN tag. | |
| vm_network | If True network will be marked as network for VM. VM network carries traffic relevant to the virtual machine. | |
| wait |
True if the module should wait for the entity to get into desired state. |
Notes
Note
- In order to use this module you have to install oVirt Python SDK. To ensure it’s installed with correct version you can create the following task: pip: name=ovirt-engine-sdk-python version=4.0.0
Examples
# Examples don't contain auth parameter for simplicity,
# look at ovirt_auth module to see how to reuse authentication:
# Create network
- ovirt_networks:
data_center: mydatacenter
name: mynetwork
vlan_tag: 1
vm_network: true
# Remove network
- ovirt_networks:
state: absent
name: mynetwork
Return Values
Common return values are documented here, the following are the fields unique to this module:
| Key | Returned | Description |
|---|---|---|
| id str | On success if network is found. | ID of the managed network Sample: 7de90f31-222c-436c-a1ca-7e655bd5b60c |
| network dict | On success if network is found. | Dictionary of all the network attributes. Network attributes can be found on your oVirt/RHV instance at following url: http://ovirt.github.io/ovirt-engine-api-model/master/#types/network. |
Status
This module is flagged as preview which means that it is not guaranteed to have a backwards compatible interface.
