Note
This plugin is part of the community.general collection (version 2.0.1).
To install it use: ansible-galaxy collection install community.general.
To use it in a playbook, specify: community.general.ovirt_nic_facts.
version 3.0.0
When migrating to collection we decided to use only _info modules.
Use ovirt.ovirt.ovirt_nic_info instead.
The below requirements are needed on the host that executes this module.
| Parameter | Choices/Defaults | Comments |
|---|---|---|
| auth dictionary / required | Dictionary with values needed to create HTTP/HTTPS connection to oVirt: username[required] - The name of the user, something like admin@internal. Default value is set by OVIRT_USERNAME environment variable.password[required] - The password of the user. Default value is set by OVIRT_PASSWORD environment variable.url- 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.hostname - 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.token - Token to be used instead of login with username/password. Default value is set by OVIRT_TOKEN environment variable.insecure - A boolean flag that indicates if the server TLS certificate and host name should be checked.ca_file - 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.kerberos - A boolean flag indicating if Kerberos authentication should be used instead of the default basic authentication.headers - Dictionary of HTTP headers to be added to each API call. | |
| fetch_nested boolean |
| If yes the module will fetch additional data from the API. It will fetch only IDs of nested entity. It doesn't fetch multiple levels of nested attributes. Only the attributes of the current entity. User can configure to fetch other attributes of the nested entities by specifying nested_attributes. |
| name string | Name of the NIC, can be used as glob expression. | |
| 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. | |
| vm string / required | Name of the VM where NIC is attached. |
Note
ovirt_nics, which contains a list of NICs. You need to register the result with the register keyword to use it.# Examples don't contain auth parameter for simplicity,
# look at ovirt_auth module to see how to reuse authentication:
- name: Gather information about all NICs which names start with eth for VM named centos7
ovirt_nic_info:
vm: centos7
name: eth*
register: result
- name: Print gathered information
ansible.builtin.debug:
msg: "{{ result.ovirt_nics }}"
Common return values are documented here, the following are the fields unique to this module:
| Key | Returned | Description |
|---|---|---|
| ovirt_nics list / elements=string | On success. | List of dictionaries describing the network interfaces. NIC attributes are mapped to dictionary keys, all NICs attributes can be found at following url: http://ovirt.github.io/ovirt-engine-api-model/master/#types/nic. |
