New in version 2.5.
| Parameter | Choices/Defaults | Comments | |
|---|---|---|---|
| agent_type string |
| Specifies the SNMP agent running on the monitored server. When creating a new monitor, the default is UCD (UC-Davis). | |
| community string | Specifies the community name that the system must use to authenticate with the host server through SNMP. When creating a new monitor, the default value is public. Note that this value is case sensitive. | ||
| cpu_coefficient string | Specifies the coefficient that the system uses to calculate the weight of the CPU threshold in the dynamic ratio load balancing algorithm. When creating a new monitor, the default is 1.5. | ||
| cpu_threshold integer | Specifies the maximum acceptable CPU usage on the target server. When creating a new monitor, the default is 80 percent. | ||
| description string | Specifies descriptive text that identifies the monitor. | ||
| disk_coefficient string | Specifies the coefficient that the system uses to calculate the weight of the disk threshold in the dynamic ratio load balancing algorithm. When creating a new monitor, the default is 2.0. | ||
| disk_threshold integer | Specifies the maximum acceptable disk usage on the target server. When creating a new monitor, the default is 90 percent. | ||
| interval integer | Specifies, in seconds, the frequency at which the system issues the monitor check when either the resource is down or the status of the resource is unknown. When creating a new monitor, the default is 10. | ||
| memory_coefficient string | Specifies the coefficient that the system uses to calculate the weight of the memory threshold in the dynamic ratio load balancing algorithm. When creating a new monitor, the default is 1.0. | ||
| memory_threshold integer | Specifies the maximum acceptable memory usage on the target server. When creating a new monitor, the default is 70 percent. | ||
| name string / required | Monitor name. | ||
| parent string | Default: "/Common/snmp_dca" | The parent template of this monitor template. Once this value has been set, it cannot be changed. By default, this value is the snmp_dca parent on the Common partition. | |
| partition string | Default: "Common" | Device partition to manage resources on. | |
| provider dictionary added in 2.5 | 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. | ||
| 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. | |
| ssh_keyfile path | Specifies the SSH keyfile to use to authenticate the connection to the remote device. This argument is only used for cli transports. You may omit this option by setting the environment variable ANSIBLE_NET_SSH_KEYFILE. | ||
| 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 added in 2.5 |
| When present, ensures that the monitor exists.When absent, ensures the monitor is removed. | |
| time_until_up integer | Specifies the number of seconds to wait after a resource first responds correctly to the monitor before setting the resource to 'up'. During the interval, all responses from the resource must be correct. When the interval expires, the resource is marked 'up'. A value of 0, means that the resource is marked up immediately upon receipt of the first correct response. When creating a new monitor, the default is 0. | ||
| timeout integer | Specifies the number of seconds the target has in which to respond to the monitor request. When creating a new monitor, the default is 30 seconds. If the target responds within the set time period, it is considered 'up'. If the target does not respond within the set time period, it is considered 'down'. When this value is set to 0 (zero), the system uses the interval from the parent monitor. Note that timeout and time_until_up combine to control when a resource is set to up. | ||
| version string |
| Specifies the version of SNMP that the host server uses. When creating a new monitor, the default is v1. When v1, specifies that the host server uses SNMP version 1. When v2c, specifies that the host server uses SNMP version 2c. | |
Note
variables option because this option is broken in the REST API and does not function correctly in tmsh; for example you cannot remove user-defined params. Therefore, there is no way to automatically configure it.- name: Create SNMP DCS monitor
