Dictionary with values needed to create HTTP/HTTPS connection to oVirt:

ca_file

string

A PEM file containing the trusted CA certificates.

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

compatibility_version

-

Compatibility version of the data center.

description

-

Description of the data center.

fetch_nested

boolean

added in 2.3

  • no
  • yes

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

added in 2.5

  • no

  • yes

This parameter can be used only when removing a data center. If True data center will be forcibly removed, even though it contains some clusters. Default value is False, which means that only empty data center can be removed.

id

-

added in 2.8

ID of the datacenter to manage.

local

boolean

  • no
  • yes

True if the data center should be local, False if should be shared.

Default value is set by engine.

mac_pool

-

MAC pool to be used by this datacenter.

IMPORTANT: This option is deprecated in oVirt/RHV 4.1. You should use mac_pool in ovirt_clusters module, as MAC pools are set per cluster since 4.1.

name

- / required

Name of the data center to manage.

nested_attributes

list

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

integer

Default:

3

quota_mode

-

  • disabled
  • audit
  • enabled

Quota mode of the data center. One of disabled, audit or enabled

state

-

  • present

  • absent

Should the data center be present or absent.

timeout

integer

Default:

180

The amount of time in seconds the module should wait for the instance to get into desired state.

wait

boolean

  • no
  • yes

yes 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=4.3.0


Examples

# Examples don't contain auth parameter for simplicity,
# look at ovirt_auth module to see how to reuse authentication:

# Create datacenter
- ovirt_datacenter:
    name: mydatacenter
    local: True
    compatibility_version: 4.0
    quota_mode: enabled

# Remove datacenter
- ovirt_datacenter:
    state: absent
    name: mydatacenter

# Change Datacenter Name
- ovirt_datacenter:
    id: 00000000-0000-0000-0000-000000000000
    name: "new_datacenter_name"

Return Values

Common return values are documented here, the following are the fields unique to this module:

Key Returned Description

data_center

dictionary

On success if datacenter is found.

Dictionary of all the datacenter attributes. Datacenter attributes can be found on your oVirt/RHV instance at following url: http://ovirt.github.io/ovirt-engine-api-model/master/#types/datacenter.


id

string

On success if datacenter is found.

ID of the managed datacenter
