Synopsis

  • Modify or Create Alarms

Requirements

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

  • openstacksdk

  • openstacksdk >= 0.36.0

  • otcextensions

  • python >= 3.6

Parameters

Parameter

Comments

alarm_action_enabled

boolean

Specifies whether to enable the action to be triggered by an alarm

Choices:

  • no

  • yes ← (default)

alarm_actions

list / elements=string

Specifies the action triggered by an alarm

Default: []

alarm_description

string

Description of the Alarm

Default: “”

alarm_enabled

boolean

Specifies whether to enable the alarm

Choices:

  • no

  • yes ← (default)

alarm_level

integer

Specifies the alarm severity. The value can be 1, 2, 3 or 4, which indicates critical, major, minor, and informational, respectively

Default: 2

alarm_name

string / required

Name of the Alarm. Can be an ID too if state == absent

api_timeout

integer

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

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 (for example, os_user_domain_name or os_project_domain_name) 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

string

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.

ca_cert

aliases: cacert

string

A path to a CA Cert bundle that can be used as part of verifying SSL API requests.

client_cert

aliases: cert

string

A path to a client certificate to use as part of the SSL transaction.

client_key

aliases: key

string

A path to a client key to use as part of the SSL transaction.

cloud

raw

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.

condition

dictionary

Specifies the alarm triggering condition. Required if state == present

interface

aliases: endpoint_type

string

Endpoint URL type to fetch from the service catalog.

Choices:

  • admin

  • internal

  • public ← (default)

metric

dictionary

Specifies the Alarm metrics. Required if state == present

ok_actions

list / elements=string

Specifies the action triggered by clearing an alarm

Default: []

region_name

string

Name of the region.

state

string

Resource state

Choices:

  • present ← (default)

  • absent

switch_alarm_state

boolean

If true switches the alarm state from on to off or off to on. Requires state == present

Choices:

  • no ← (default)

  • yes

timeout

integer

How long should ansible wait for the requested resource.

Default: 180

validate_certs

aliases: verify

boolean

Whether or not SSL API requests should be verified.

Before Ansible 2.3 this defaulted to yes.

Choices:

  • no ← (default)

  • yes

wait

boolean

Should ansible wait until the requested resource is complete.

Choices:

  • no

  • yes ← (default)

Notes

Note

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

  • Auth information is driven by openstacksdk, 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 https://docs.openstack.org/openstacksdk/
