group_name
string
Name of the group to manage.
Note that if group does not exist in the system this module will fail, you should ensure the group exists by using ovirt.ovirt.ovirt_groups module.
namespace
string
Namespace of the authorization provider, where user/group resides.
nested_attributes
list / elements=string
Specifies list of the attributes which should be fetched from the API.
This parameter apply only when fetch_nested is true.
object_id
string
ID of the object where the permissions should be managed.
object_name
string
Name of the object where the permissions should be managed.
object_type
string
    Choices:
  • cluster
  • cpu_profile
  • data_center
  • disk
  • disk_profile
  • host
  • network
  • storage_domain
  • system
  • template
  • vm
  • vm_pool
  • vnic_profile
The object where the permissions should be managed.
poll_interval
integer
Default:
3
Number of the seconds the module waits until another poll request on entity status is sent.

    Choices:
  • absent
  • present
Should the permission be present/absent.

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=4.4.0

Examples

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

- name: Add user user1 from authorization provider example.com-authz
  ovirt.ovirt.ovirt_permission:
    user_name: user1
    authz_name: example.com-authz
    object_type: vm
    object_name: myvm
    role: UserVmManager

- name: Remove permission from user
  ovirt.ovirt.ovirt_permission:
    state: absent
    user_name: user1
    authz_name: example.com-authz
    object_type: cluster
    object_name: mycluster
    role: ClusterAdmin

- name: Assign QuotaConsumer role to user
  ovirt.ovirt.ovirt_permissions:
    state: present
    user_name: user1
    authz_name: example.com-authz
    object_type: data_center
    object_name: mydatacenter
    quota_name: myquota
    role: QuotaConsumer

- name: Assign QuotaConsumer role to group
  ovirt.ovirt.ovirt_permissions:
    state: present
    group_name: group1
    authz_name: example.com-authz
    object_type: data_center
    object_name: mydatacenter
    quota_name: myquota
    role: QuotaConsumer

Return Values

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

Key Returned Description
id
string
On success if permission is found.

Sample:
7de90f31-222c-436c-a1ca-7e655bd5b60c
