/mgmt/tm/sys/application/service/.| Parameter | Choices/Defaults | Comments | |
|---|---|---|---|
| description string | Description of the iApp service. If this option is specified in the Ansible task, it will take precedence over any similar setting in the iApp Service payload that you provide in the parameters field. | ||
| device_group string | The device group for the iApp service. If this option is specified in the Ansible task, it will take precedence over any similar setting in the iApp Service payload that you provide in the parameters field. | ||
| force boolean |
| Forces the updating of an iApp service, even if the parameters to the service have not changed. This option is of particular importance if the iApp template that underlies the service has been updated in-place. This option is equivalent to re-configuring the iApp if that template has changed. | |
| metadata list / elements=raw | Metadata associated with the iApp service. If this option is specified in the Ansible task, it will take precedence over any similar setting in the iApp Service payload that you provide in the parameters field. | ||
| name string / required | The name of the iApp service you want to deploy. | ||
| parameters dictionary | A hash of all the required template variables for the iApp template. If your parameters are stored in a file (the more common scenario) we recommend you use either the file or template lookups to supply the expected parameters.These parameters typically consist of the lists, tables, and variables fields. | ||
| partition string | Default: "Common" | Device partition to manage resources on. | |
| provider dictionary added in 1.0.0 of f5networks.f5_modules | A dict object containing connection details. | ||
| auth_provider string | Configures the auth provider for to obtain authentication tokens from the remote device. This option is really used when working with BIG-IQ devices. | ||
| no_f5_teem boolean |
| If yes, TEEM telemetry data is not sent to F5.You may omit this option by setting the environment variable F5_TEEM. | |
| password string / required | The password for the user account used to connect to the BIG-IP. You may omit this option by setting the environment variable F5_PASSWORD.aliases: pass, pwd | ||
| server string / required | The BIG-IP host. You may omit this option by setting the environment variable F5_SERVER. | ||
| server_port integer | Default: 443 | The BIG-IP server port. You may omit this option by setting the environment variable F5_SERVER_PORT. | |
| timeout integer | Specifies the timeout in seconds for communicating with the network device for either connecting or sending commands. If the timeout is exceeded before the operation is completed, the module will error. | ||
| transport string |
| Configures the transport connection to use when connecting to the remote device. | |
| user string / required | The username to connect to the BIG-IP with. This user must have administrative privileges on the device. You may omit this option by setting the environment variable F5_USER. | ||
| validate_certs boolean |
| If no, SSL certificates are not validated. Use this only on personally controlled sites using self-signed certificates.You may omit this option by setting the environment variable F5_VALIDATE_CERTS. | |
| state string |
| When present, ensures the iApp service is created and running. When absent, ensures the iApp service has been removed. | |
| strict_updates boolean |
| Indicates whether the application service is tied to the template, so when the template is updated, the application service changes to reflect the updates. When yes, disallows any updates to the resources that the iApp service has created, if they are not updated directly through the iApp.When no, allows updates outside of the iApp.If this option is specified in the Ansible task, it will take precedence over any similar setting in the iApp Service payload that you provide in the parameters field. | |
| template string | The iApp template from which to instantiate a new service. This template must exist on your BIG-IP before you can successfully create a service. When creating a new service, this parameter is required. | ||
| traffic_group string | The traffic group for the iApp service. When creating a new service, if this value is not specified, the default of /Common/traffic-group-1 will be used.If this option is specified in the Ansible task, it will take precedence over any similar setting in the iApp Service payload that you provide in the parameters field. | ||
