Synopsis

Module to manage users in oVirt.

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. In previous versions of oVirt known as domain.

      aliases: domain
      name
      yes

          timeout
          no 180
            The amount of time in seconds the module should wait for the instance 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:
              
              # Add user user1 from authorization provider example.com-authz
              ovirt_users:
                  name: user1
                  domain: example.com-authz
              
              # Add user user1 from authorization provider example.com-authz
              # In case of Active Directory specify UPN:
              ovirt_users:
                  name: user1@ad2.example.com
                  domain: example.com-authz
              
              # Remove user user1 with authorization provider example.com-authz
              ovirt_users:
                  state: absent
                  name: user1
                  authz_name: example.com-authz
