Synopsis ¶

Add or Remove a member for a pool from the OpenStack load-balancer service.

Requirements ¶

The below requirements are needed on the host that executes this module.

openstacksdk
python >= 2.7

Parameters ¶

Parameter	Choices/Defaults	Comments
address		The IP address of the member.
api_timeout		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		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		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		Ignored. Present for backwards compatibility
cacert		A path to a CA Cert bundle that can be used as part of verifying SSL API requests.
cert		A path to a client certificate to use as part of the SSL transaction.
cloud		Named cloud or cloud config to operate against. If cloud is a string, it references a named cloud config as defined in an OpenStack clouds.yaml file. Provides default values for auth and auth_type. This parameter is not needed if auth is provided or if OpenStack OS_* environment variables are present. If cloud is a dict, it contains a complete cloud configuration like would be in a section of clouds.yaml.
interface (added in 2.3)	Choices: public ← internal admin	Endpoint URL type to fetch from the service catalog. aliases: endpoint_type
key		A path to a client key to use as part of the SSL transaction.
name required		Name that has to be given to the member
pool required		The name or id of the pool that this member belongs to.
protocol_port	Default: 80	The protocol port number for the member.
region_name		Name of the region.
state	Choices: present ← absent	Should the resource be present or absent.
subnet_id		The subnet ID the member service is accessible from.
timeout	Default: 180	The amount of time the module should wait for the load balancer to get into ACTIVE state.
verify bool	Choices: no yes	Whether or not SSL API requests should be verified. Before 2.3 this defaulted to True. aliases: validate_certs
wait bool	Choices: no yes ←	If the module should wait for the load balancer to be ACTIVE.

Notes ¶

Note

The standard OpenStack environment variables, such as OS_USERNAME may be used instead of providing explicit values.
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. More information can be found at http://docs.openstack.org/developer/os-client-config

Examples ¶

# Create a member, wait for the member to be created.
- os_member:
    cloud: mycloud
    endpoint_type: admin
    state: present
    name: test-member
    pool: test-pool
    address: 192.168.10.3
    protocol_port: 8080

# Delete a listener
- os_member:
    cloud: mycloud
    endpoint_type: admin
    state: absent
    name: test-member
    pool: test-pool
