azure_rm_acs - Manage an Azure Container Service Instance (ACS).

New in version 2.4.

Synopsis

  • Create, update and delete an Azure Container Service Instance.

Requirements

The below requirements are needed on the host that executes this module.

  • python >= 2.7
  • azure >= 2.0.0

Parameters

Parameter Choices/Defaults Comments
ad_user
Active Directory username. Use when authenticating with an Active Directory user rather than service principal.
adfs_authority_url
(added in 2.6)
 Default:
null
Azure AD authority url. Use when authenticating with Username/password, and has your own ADFS authority.
agent_pool_profiles
required
The agent pool profile suboptions.
name
required
Unique name of the agent pool profile in the context of the subscription and resource group.
count
required
Number of agents (VMs) to host docker containers. Allowed values must be in the range of 1 to 100 (inclusive).
dns_prefix
required
The DNS Prefix given to Agents in this Agent Pool.
vm_size
required
The VM Size of each of the Agent Pool VM's (e.g. Standard_F1 / Standard_D2v2).
api_profile
(added in 2.5)
 Default:
"latest"
Selects an API profile to use when communicating with Azure services. Default value of latest is appropriate for public clouds; future values will allow use with Azure Stack.
append_tags
bool
    Choices:
  • no
  • yes ←
Use to control if tags field is canonical or just appends to existing tags. When canonical, any tags not found in the tags parameter will be removed from the object's metadata.
auth_source
(added in 2.5)
    Choices:
  • auto
  • cli
  • credential_file
  • env
  • msi
Controls the source of the credentials to use for authentication.
If not specified, ANSIBLE_AZURE_AUTH_SOURCE environment variable will be used and default to auto if variable is not defined.
auto will follow the default precedence of module parameters -> environment variables -> default profile in credential file ~/.azure/credentials.
When set to cli, the credentials will be sources from the default Azure CLI profile.
Can also be set via the ANSIBLE_AZURE_AUTH_SOURCE environment variable.
When set to msi, the host machine must be an azure resource with an enabled MSI extension. subscription_id or the environment variable AZURE_SUBSCRIPTION_ID can be used to identify the subscription ID if the resource is granted access to more than one subscription, otherwise the first subscription is chosen.
The msi was added in Ansible 2.6.
cert_validation_mode
(added in 2.5)
    Choices:
  • validate
  • ignore
Controls the certificate validation behavior for Azure endpoints. By default, all modules will validate the server certificate, but when an HTTPS proxy is in use, or against Azure Stack, it may be necessary to disable this behavior by passing ignore. Can also be set via credential file profile or the AZURE_CERT_VALIDATION environment variable.
client_id
Azure client ID. Use when authenticating with a Service Principal.
cloud_environment
(added in 2.4)
 Default:
"AzureCloud"
For cloud environments other than the US public cloud, the environment name (as defined by Azure Python SDK, eg, AzureChinaCloud, AzureUSGovernment), or a metadata discovery endpoint URL (required for Azure Stack). Can also be set via credential file profile or the AZURE_CLOUD_ENVIRONMENT environment variable.
diagnostics_profile
bool

required
    Choices:
  • no
  • yes
Should VM Diagnostics be enabled for the Container Service VM's.
linux_profile
required
The linux profile suboptions.
admin_username
required
The Admin Username for the Cluster.
ssh_key
required
The Public SSH Key used to access the cluster.
location
Valid azure location. Defaults to location of the resource group.
master_profile
required
Master profile suboptions.
count
required
    Choices:
  • 1
  • 3
  • 5
Number of masters (VMs) in the container service cluster. Allowed values are 1, 3, and 5.
vm_size
required

(added in 2.5)
The VM Size of each of the Agent Pool VM's (e.g. Standard_F1 / Standard_D2v2).
dns_prefix
required
The DNS Prefix to use for the Container Service master nodes.
name
required
Name of the Container Services instance.
orchestration_platform
required
    Choices:
  • DCOS
  • Kubernetes
  • Swarm
Specifies the Container Orchestration Platform to use. Currently can be either DCOS, Kubernetes or Swarm.
password
Active Directory user password. Use when authenticating with an Active Directory user rather than service principal.
profile
Security profile found in ~/.azure/credentials file.
resource_group
required
Name of a resource group where the Container Services exists or will be created.
secret
Azure client secret. Use when authenticating with a Service Principal.
service_principal
The service principal suboptions.
client_id
The ID for the Service Principal.
client_secret
The secret password associated with the service principal.
state
    Choices:
  • absent
  • present ←
Assert the state of the ACS. Use 'present' to create or update an ACS and 'absent' to delete it.
subscription_id
Your Azure subscription Id.
tags
Dictionary of string:string pairs to assign as metadata to the object. Metadata tags on the object will be updated with any provided values. To remove tags set append_tags option to false.
tenant
Azure tenant ID. Use when authenticating with a Service Principal.

Notes

Note

  • For authentication with Azure you can pass parameters, set environment variables or use a profile stored in ~/.azure/credentials. Authentication is possible using a service principal or Active Directory user. To authenticate via service principal, pass subscription_id, client_id, secret and tenant or set environment variables AZURE_SUBSCRIPTION_ID, AZURE_CLIENT_ID, AZURE_SECRET and AZURE_TENANT.
  • To authenticate via Active Directory user, pass ad_user and password, or set AZURE_AD_USER and AZURE_PASSWORD in the environment.
  • Alternatively, credentials can be stored in ~/.azure/credentials. This is an ini file containing a [default] section and the following keys: subscription_id, client_id, secret and tenant or subscription_id, ad_user and password. It is also possible to add additional profiles. Specify the profile by passing profile or setting AZURE_PROFILE in the environment.
