The below requirements are needed on the host that executes this module.
| Parameter | Choices/Defaults | Comments | |
|---|---|---|---|
| affinity dictionary | Describes node affinity scheduling rules for the vm. | ||
| hard dictionary | If the affinity requirements specified by this field are not met at scheduling time, the vm will not be scheduled onto the node. If the affinity requirements specified by this field cease to be met at some point during vm execution (e.g. due to a vm label update), the system may or may not try to eventually evict the vm from its node. When there are multiple elements, the lists of nodes corresponding to each term are intersected, i.e. all terms must be satisfied. | ||
| soft dictionary | The scheduler will prefer to schedule vms to nodes that satisfy the affinity expressions specified by this field, but it may choose a node that violates one or more of the expressions. The node that is most preferred is the one with the greatest sum of weights, i.e. for each node that meets all of the scheduling requirements (resource request, requiredDuringScheduling affinity expressions, etc.), compute a sum by iterating through the elements of this field and adding weight to the sum if the node has vms which matches the corresponding term; the nodes with the highest sum are the most preferred. | ||
| anti_affinity dictionary | Describes vm anti-affinity scheduling rules e.g. avoid putting this vm in the same node, zone, etc. as some other vms. | ||
| hard dictionary | If the anti-affinity requirements specified by this field are not met at scheduling time, the vm will not be scheduled onto the node. If the anti-affinity requirements specified by this field cease to be met at some point during vm execution (e.g. due to a vm label update), the system may or may not try to eventually evict the vm from its node. When there are multiple elements, the lists of nodes corresponding to each term are intersected, i.e. all terms must be satisfied. | ||

| ||
| context string | The name of a context found in the config file. Can also be specified via K8S_AUTH_CONTEXT environment variable. | ||
| cpu_cores integer | Number of CPU cores. | ||
| cpu_features list / elements=string | List of dictionary to fine-tune features provided by the selected CPU model.
Note: Policy attribute can either be omitted or contain one of the following policies: force, require, optional, disable, forbid.
Note: In case a policy is omitted for a feature, it will default to require. More information about policies: https://libvirt.org/formatdomain.html#elementsCPU
| ||
| cpu_limit integer | Is converted to its millicore value and multiplied by 100. The resulting value is the total amount of CPU time that a container can use every 100ms. A virtual machine cannot use more than its share of CPU time during this interval. | ||
| cpu_model string | CPU model. You can check list of available models here: https://github.com/libvirt/libvirt/blob/master/src/cpu_map/index.xml.
Note: User can define default CPU model via as default-cpu-model in kubevirt-config ConfigMap, if not set host-model is used.
Note: Be sure that node CPU model where you run a VM, has the same or higher CPU family.
Note: If CPU model wasn't defined, the VM will have CPU model closest to one that used on the node where the VM is running. | ||
| cpu_shares integer | Specify CPU shares. | ||
| disks list / elements=string | List of dictionaries which specify disks of the virtual machine. A disk can be made accessible via four different types: disk, lun, cdrom, floppy. All possible configuration options are available in https://kubevirt.io/api-reference/master/definitions.html#_v1_disk

| force boolean |
| If set to no, and state is present, an existing object will be replaced. | |
| headless string | Specify if the virtual machine should have attached a minimal Video and Graphics device configuration. By default a minimal Video and Graphics device configuration will be applied to the VirtualMachineInstance. The video device is vga compatible and comes with a memory size of 16 MB. | ||
| host string | Provide a URL for accessing the API. Can also be specified via K8S_AUTH_HOST environment variable. | ||
| hostname string | Specifies the hostname of the virtual machine. The hostname will be set either by dhcp, cloud-init if configured or virtual machine name will be used. | ||
| hugepage_size string | Specify huge page size. | ||
| interfaces list / elements=string | An interface defines a virtual network interface of a virtual machine (also called a frontend). All possible configuration options interfaces are available in https://kubevirt.io/api-reference/master/definitions.html#_v1_interface
Each interface must have specified a network that declares which logical or physical device it is connected to (also called as backend). All possible configuration options of network are available in https://kubevirt.io/api-reference/master/definitions.html#_v1_network. | ||
| kubeconfig path | Path to an existing Kubernetes config file. If not provided, and no other connection options are provided, the openshift client will attempt to load the default configuration file from ~/.kube/config.json. Can also be specified via K8S_AUTH_KUBECONFIG environment variable. | ||
| labels dictionary | Labels are key/value pairs that are attached to virtual machines. Labels are intended to be used to specify identifying attributes of virtual machines that are meaningful and relevant to users, but do not directly imply semantics to the core system. Labels can be used to organize and to select subsets of virtual machines. Labels can be attached to virtual machines at creation time and subsequently added and modified at any time. More on labels that are used for internal implementation https://kubevirt.io/user-guide/#/misc/annotations_and_labels
| ||
| machine_type string | QEMU machine type is the actual chipset of the virtual machine. | ||
| memory string | The amount of memory to be requested by virtual machine. For example 1024Mi. | ||
| memory_limit string | The maximum memory to be used by virtual machine. For example 1024Mi. | ||
| merge_type list / elements=string |
| Whether to override the default patch merge approach with a specific type. If more than one merge type is given, the merge types will be tried in order. Defaults to ['strategic-merge', 'merge'], which is ideal for using the same parameters on resource kinds that combine Custom Resources and built-in resources, as Custom Resource Definitions typically aren't updatable by the usual strategic merge. | |
| name string / required | Name of the virtual machine preset. | ||
| namespace string / required | Namespace where the virtual machine preset exists. | ||
| node_affinity dictionary | Describes vm affinity scheduling rules e.g. co-locate this vm in the same node, zone, etc. as some other vms | ||
| hard dictionary | If the affinity requirements specified by this field are not met at scheduling time, the vm will not be scheduled onto the node. If the affinity requirements specified by this field cease to be met at some point during vm execution (e.g. due to an update), the system may or may not try to eventually evict the vm from its node. | ||
| soft dictionary | The scheduler will prefer to schedule vms to nodes that satisfy the affinity expressions specified by this field, but it may choose a node that violates one or more of the expressions. The node that is most preferred is the one with the greatest sum of weights, i.e. for each node that meets all of the scheduling requirements (resource request, requiredDuringScheduling affinity expressions, etc.), compute a sum by iterating through the elements of this field and adding weight to the sum if the node matches the corresponding match_expressions; the nodes with the highest sum are the most preferred. | ||
| password string | Provide a password for authenticating with the API. Can also be specified via K8S_AUTH_PASSWORD environment variable. Please read the description of the username option for a discussion of when this option is applicable. | ||
| persist_config boolean |
| Whether or not to save the kube config refresh tokens. Can also be specified via K8S_AUTH_PERSIST_CONFIG environment variable. When the k8s context is using a user credentials with refresh tokens (like oidc or gke/gcloud auth), the token is refreshed by the k8s python client library but not saved by default. So the old refresh token can expire and the next auth might fail. Setting this flag to true will tell the k8s python client to save the new refresh token to the kube config file. Default to false. Please note that the current version of the k8s python client library does not support setting this flag to True yet. The fix for this k8s python library is here: https://github.com/kubernetes-client/python-base/pull/169 | |
| proxy string | The URL of an HTTP proxy to use for the connection. Can also be specified via K8S_AUTH_PROXY environment variable. Please note that this module does not pick up typical proxy settings from the environment (e.g. HTTP_PROXY). | ||
| resource_definition dictionary | A partial YAML definition of the object being created/updated. Here you can define Kubernetes resource parameters not covered by this module's parameters. NOTE: resource_definition has lower priority than module parameters. If you try to define e.g. metadata.namespace here, that value will be ignored and namespace used instead. aliases: definition, inline | ||
| selector dictionary | Selector is a label query over a set of virtual machine preset. | ||
| smbios_uuid string | In order to provide a consistent view on the virtualized hardware for the guest OS, the SMBIOS UUID can be set. | ||
| state string |
| Create or delete virtual machine presets. | |
| subdomain string | If specified, the fully qualified virtual machine hostname will be hostname.subdomain.namespace.svc.cluster_domain. If not specified, the virtual machine will not have a domain name at all. The DNS entry will resolve to the virtual machine, no matter if the virtual machine itself can pick up a hostname. | ||
| tablets list / elements=string | Specify tablets to be used as input devices | ||
| username string | Provide a username for authenticating with the API. Can also be specified via K8S_AUTH_USERNAME environment variable. Please note that this only works with clusters configured to use HTTP Basic Auth. If your cluster has a different form of authentication (e.g. OAuth2 in OpenShift), this option will not work as expected and you should look into the k8s_auth module, as that might do what you need. | ||
| validate_certs boolean |
| Whether or not to verify the API server's SSL certificates. Can also be specified via K8S_AUTH_VERIFY_SSL environment variable. aliases: verify_ssl | |
| wait boolean |
|
True if the module should wait for the resource to get into desired state. | |
| wait_sleep string | Default: 5 | Number of seconds to sleep between checks. | |
| wait_timeout integer | Default: 120 | The amount of time in seconds the module should wait for the resource to get into desired state. | |
Note
validate_certs is True, the full certificate chain for the API server must be provided via ca_cert or in the kubeconfig file.- name: Create virtual machine preset 'vmi-preset-small'
