Applicable for os_volume. | |
authentication_url - | Keystone authentication URL of the openstack provider. Applicable for those types: os_image, os_volume and network. aliases: auth_url | ||
data_center - | Name of the data center where provider should be attached. Applicable for those type: os_volume. | ||
description - | Description of the external provider. | ||
fetch_nested boolean 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 . | |
name - | Name of the external provider to manage. | ||

Examples
# Examples don't contain auth parameter for simplicity, # look at ovirt_auth module to see how to reuse authentication: # Add image external provider: - ovirt_external_provider: name: image_provider type: os_image url: http://1.2.3.4:9292 username: admin password: 123456 tenant: admin auth_url: http://1.2.3.4:35357/v2.0 # Add volume external provider: - ovirt_external_provider: name: image_provider type: os_volume url: http://1.2.3.4:9292 username: admin password: 123456 tenant: admin auth_url: http://1.2.3.4:5000/v2.0 authentication_keys: - uuid: "1234567-a1234-12a3-a234-123abc45678" value: "ABCD00000000111111222333445w==" # Add foreman provider: - ovirt_external_provider: name: foreman_provider type: foreman url: https://foreman.example.com username: admin password: 123456 # Add external network provider for OVN: - ovirt_external_provider: name: ovn_provider type: network network_type: external url: http://1.2.3.4:9696 # Remove image external provider: - ovirt_external_provider: state: absent name: image_provider type: os_image
