ovirt_permissions_facts - Retrieve facts about one or more oVirt permissions

New in version 2.3.

Synopsis

Retrieve facts about one or more oVirt permissions.

Requirements (on host that executes module)

  • python >= 2.7
  • ovirt-engine-sdk-python >= 4.0.0

Options

parameter required default choices comments
auth
yes
    Dictionary with values needed to create HTTP/HTTPS connection to oVirt:
    username[required] - The name of the user, something like `admin@internal`.
    password[required] - The password of the user.
    url[required] - A string containing the base URL of the server, usually something like `https://server.example.com/ovirt-engine/api`.
    token - Token to be used instead of login with username/password.
    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.
    kerberos - A boolean flag indicating if Kerberos authentication should be used instead of the default basic authentication.
    authz_name
    yes
      Authorization provider of the user/group. In previous versions of oVirt known as domain.

      aliases: domain
      group_name
      no
        Name of the the group to manage.
        namespace
        no
          Namespace of the authorization provider, where user/group resides.
          poll_interval
          no 3
            Number of the seconds the module waits until another poll request on entity status is sent.
            timeout
            no 180
              The amount of time in seconds the module should wait for the instance to get into desired state.
              user_name
              no
                Username of the the user to manage. In most LDAPs it's uid of the user, but in Active Directory you must specify UPN of the user.
                wait
                no
                  True if the module should wait for the entity to get into desired state.

                  Examples

                  # Examples don't contain auth parameter for simplicity,
                  # look at ovirt_auth module to see how to reuse authentication:
                  
                  # Gather facts about all permissions of user with username C(john):
                  - ovirt_permissions_facts:
                      user_name: john
                      authz_name: example.com-authz
                  - debug:
                      var: ovirt_permissions
                  

                  Return Values

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

                  name description returned type sample
                  ovirt_permissions List of dictionaries describing the permissions. Permission attribues are mapped to dictionary keys, all permissions attributes can be found at following url: https://ovirt.example.com/ovirt-engine/api/model#types/permission. On success. list


                  Notes

                  Note

                  This module creates a new top-level ovirt_permissions fact, which contains a list of permissions.

                  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=4.0.0
