  • shade

Options

parameter required default choices comments
api_timeout
 no None
    How long should the socket layer wait before timing out for API calls. If this is omitted, nothing will be passed to the requests library.
    auth
    		 no
      Dictionary containing auth information as needed by the cloud's auth plugin strategy. For the default password plugin, this would contain auth_url, username, password, project_name and any information about domains if the cloud supports them. For other plugins, this param will need to contain whatever parameters that auth plugin requires. This parameter is not needed if a named cloud is provided or OpenStack OS_* environment variables are present.
      auth_type
      		 no password
        Name of the auth plugin to use. If the cloud uses something other than password authentication, the name of the plugin should be indicated here and the contents of the auth parameter should be updated accordingly.
        availability_zone
        		 no
          Name of the availability zone.
          cacert

              cloud
              		 no

                device
                		 no None
                  Device you want to attach. Defaults to auto finding a device name.

                              # Attaches a volume to a compute host
- name: attach a volume
  hosts: localhost
  tasks:
  - name: attach volume to host
    os_server_volume:
      state: present
      cloud: mordred
      server: Mysql-server
      volume: mysql-data
      device: /dev/vdb

                              Notes

                              Note

                              The standard OpenStack environment variables, such as OS_USERNAME may be used instead of providing explicit values.

                              Note

                              Auth information is driven by os-client-config, which means that values can come from a yaml config file in /etc/ansible/openstack.yaml, /etc/openstack/clouds.yaml or ~/.config/openstack/clouds.yaml, then from standard environment variables, then finally by explicit parameters in plays.
