The below requirements are needed on the host that executes this module.
Parameter | Choices/Defaults | Comments | |
---|---|---|---|
activate boolean added in 2.4 |
| If state is present activate the host.This parameter is good to disable, when you don't want to change the state of host when using present state . | |
address - | Host address. It can be either FQDN (preferred) or IP address. | ||
auth dictionary / required | Dictionary with values needed to create HTTP/HTTPS connection to oVirt: | ||
ca_file string | 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. | ||
headers dictionary | Dictionary of HTTP headers to be added to each API call. | ||
hostname string | A string containing the hostname of the server, usually something like `server.example.com`. Default value is set by OVIRT_HOSTNAME environment variable.Either url or hostname is required. | ||
insecure boolean |
| A boolean flag that indicates if the server TLS certificate and host name should be checked. | |
kerberos boolean |
| A boolean flag indicating if Kerberos authentication should be used instead of the default basic authentication. | |
password string / required | The password of the user. Default value is set by OVIRT_PASSWORD environment variable. | ||
token string | Token to be used instead of login with username/password. Default value is set by OVIRT_TOKEN environment variable. | ||
url string | A string containing the API URL of the server, usually something like `https://server.example.com/ovirt-engine/api`. Default value is set by OVIRT_URL environment variable.Either url or hostname is required. | ||
username string / required | The name of the user, something like admin@internal. Default value is set by OVIRT_USERNAME environment variable. | ||
check_upgrade boolean added in 2.4 |
| If true and state is upgraded run check for upgrade action before executing upgrade action. | |
cluster - | Name of the cluster, where host should be created. | ||
comment - | Description of the host. | ||
fetch_nested boolean |
| 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 . | |
force boolean |
| Indicates that the host should be removed even if it is non-responsive, or if it is part of a Gluster Storage cluster and has volume bricks on it. WARNING: It doesn't forcibly remove the host if another host related operation is being executed on the host at the same time. | |
hosted_engine - |
| If deploy it means this host should deploy also hosted engine components. If undeploy it means this host should un-deploy hosted engine components and this host will not function as part of the High Availability cluster. | |
id - added in 2.8 | ID of the host to manage. | ||
iscsi - added in 2.4 | If state is iscsidiscover it means that the iscsi attribute is being used to discover targetsIf state is iscsilogin it means that the iscsi attribute is being used to login to the specified targets passed as part of the iscsi attribute | ||
kdump_integration - |
| Specify if host will have enabled Kdump integration. | |
kernel_params - | List of kernel boot parameters. Following are most common kernel parameters used for host: Hostdev Passthrough & SR-IOV: intel_iommu=on Nested Virtualization: kvm-intel.nested=1 Unsafe Interrupts: vfio_iommu_type1.allow_unsafe_interrupts=1 PCI Reallocation: pci=realloc Note: Modifying kernel boot parameters settings can lead to a host boot failure. Please consult the product documentation before doing any changes. Kernel boot parameters changes require host deploy and restart. The host needs to be reinstalled successfully and then to be rebooted for kernel boot parameters to be applied. | ||
name - / required | Name of the host to manage. | ||
nested_attributes list | Specifies list of the attributes which should be fetched from the API. This parameter apply only when fetch_nested is true. | ||
override_display boolean |
| Override the display address of all VMs on this host with specified address. | |
override_iptables boolean |
| If True host iptables will be overridden by host deploy script. Note that override_iptables is false by default in oVirt/RHV. | |
password - | Password of the root. It's required in case public_key is set to False. | ||
poll_interval integer | Default: 3 | Number of the seconds the module waits until another poll request on entity status is sent. | |
power_management_enabled boolean added in 2.4 |
| Enable or disable power management of the host. For more comprehensive setup of PM use ovirt_host_pm module. | |
public_key boolean |
|
True if the public key should be used to authenticate to host. It's required in case password is not set.aliases: ssh_public_key | |
reboot_after_upgrade boolean added in 2.6 |
| If true and state is upgraded reboot host after successful upgrade. | |
spm_priority - | SPM priority of the host. Integer value from 1 to 10, where higher number means higher priority. | ||
state - |
| State which should a host to be in after successful completion.
iscsilogin and iscsidiscover are supported since version 2.4. | |
timeout integer | Default: 600 | The amount of time in seconds the module should wait for the host to get into desired state. | |
vgpu_placement - added in 2.8 |
| If consolidated, each vGPU is placed on the first physical card with available space. This is the default placement, utilizing all available space on the physical cards. If separated, each vGPU is placed on a separate physical card, if possible. This can be useful for improving vGPU performance. | |
wait boolean |
| yes if the module should wait for the entity to get into desired state. |
Note
# Examples don't contain auth parameter for simplicity, # look at ovirt_auth module to see how to reuse authentication: # Add host with username/password supporting SR-IOV. # Note that override_iptables is false by default in oVirt/RHV: - ovirt_host: cluster: Default name: myhost address: 10.34.61.145 password: secret override_iptables: true kernel_params: - intel_iommu=on # Add host using public key - ovirt_host: public_key: true cluster: Default name: myhost2 address: 10.34.61.145 override_iptables: true # Deploy hosted engine host - ovirt_host: cluster: Default name: myhost2 password: secret address: 10.34.61.145 override_iptables: true hosted_engine: deploy # Maintenance - ovirt_host: state: maintenance name: myhost # Restart host using power management: - ovirt_host: state: restarted name: myhost # Upgrade host - ovirt_host: state: upgraded name: myhost # discover iscsi targets - ovirt_host: state: iscsidiscover name: myhost iscsi: username: iscsi_user password: secret address: 10.34.61.145 port: 3260 # login to iscsi targets - ovirt_host: state: iscsilogin name: myhost iscsi: username: iscsi_user password: secret address: 10.34.61.145 target: "iqn.2015-07.com.mlipchuk2.redhat:444" port: 3260 # Reinstall host using public key - ovirt_host: state: reinstalled name: myhost public_key: true # Remove host - ovirt_host: state: absent name: myhost force: True # Retry removing host when failed (https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1719271) - ovirt_host: state: absent name: myhost register: result until: not result.failed retries: 6 delay: 20 # Change host Name - ovirt_host: id: 00000000-0000-0000-0000-000000000000 name: "new host name"
