## Synopsis

- Create, update and remove clusters.

## Requirements

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

- python >= 2.6
- cs >= 0.6.10

## Parameters

Parameter | Choices/Defaults | Comments
--- | --- | ---
api_http_method string | Choices: get post | HTTP method used to query the API endpoint. If not given, the `CLOUDSTACK_METHOD` env variable is considered. As the last option, the value is taken from the ini config file, also see the notes. Fallback value is `get` if not specified.
api_key string |  | API key of the CloudStack API. If not given, the `CLOUDSTACK_KEY` env variable is considered. As the last option, the value is taken from the ini config file, also see the notes.
api_region string | Default: "cloudstack" | Name of the ini section in the `cloustack.ini` file. If not given, the `CLOUDSTACK_REGION` env variable is considered.
api_secret string |  | Secret key of the CloudStack API. If not set, the `CLOUDSTACK_SECRET` env variable is considered. As the last option, the value is taken from the ini config file, also see the notes.
api_timeout integer |  | HTTP timeout in seconds. If not given, the `CLOUDSTACK_TIMEOUT` env variable is considered. As the last option, the value is taken from the ini config file, also see the notes. Fallback value is 10 seconds if not specified.
api_url string |  | URL of the CloudStack API e.g. https://cloud.example.com/client/api. If not given, the `CLOUDSTACK_ENDPOINT` env variable is considered. As the last option, the value is taken from the ini config file, also see the notes.
cluster_type string | Choices: CloudManaged ExternalManaged | Type of the cluster. Required if state=present
guest_vswitch_name string |  | Name of virtual switch used for guest traffic in the cluster. This would override zone wide traffic label setting.
guest_vswitch_type string | Choices: vmwaresvs vmwaredvs | Type of virtual switch used for guest traffic in the cluster. Allowed values are, vmwaresvs (for VMware standard vSwitch) and vmwaredvs (for VMware distributed vSwitch)
hypervisor string |  | Name the hypervisor to be used. Required if state=present. Possible values are `KVM`, `VMware`, `BareMetal`, `XenServer`, `LXC`, `HyperV`, `UCS`, `OVM`, `Simulator`.
name string / required |  | name of the cluster.
ovm3_cluster string |  | Ovm3 native OCFS2 clustering enabled for cluster.
ovm3_pool string |  | Ovm3 native pooling enabled for cluster.
ovm3_vip string |  | Ovm3 vip to use for pool (and cluster).
password string |  | Password for the cluster.
pod string |  | Name of the pod in which the cluster belongs to.
public_vswitch_name string |  | Name of virtual switch used for public traffic in the cluster. This would override zone wide traffic label setting.
public_vswitch_type string | Choices: vmwaresvs vmwaredvs | Type of virtual switch used for public traffic in the cluster. Allowed values are, vmwaresvs (for VMware standard vSwitch) and vmwaredvs (for VMware distributed vSwitch)
state string | Choices: present ← absent disabled enabled | State of the cluster.
url string |  | URL for the cluster
username string |  | Username for the cluster.
vms_ip_address string |  | IP address of the VSM associated with this cluster.
vms_password string |  | Password for the VSM associated with this cluster.
vms_username string |  | Username for the VSM associated with this cluster.
zone string |  | Name of the zone in which the cluster belongs to. If not set, default zone is used.

## Notes

Note

- Ansible uses the `cs` library’s configuration method if credentials are not provided by the arguments `api_url`, `api_key`, `api_secret`. Configuration is read from several locations, in the following order. The `CLOUDSTACK_ENDPOINT`, `CLOUDSTACK_KEY`, `CLOUDSTACK_SECRET` and `CLOUDSTACK_METHOD`. `CLOUDSTACK_TIMEOUT` environment variables. A `CLOUDSTACK_CONFIG` environment variable pointing to an `.ini` file. A `cloudstack.ini` file in the current working directory. A `.cloudstack.ini` file in the users home directory. Optionally multiple credentials and endpoints can be specified using ini sections in `cloudstack.ini`. Use the argument `api_region` to select the section name, default section is `cloudstack`. See https://github.com/exoscale/cs for more information.
- A detailed guide about cloudstack modules can be found in the CloudStack Cloud Guide.
- This module supports check mode.

## Examples

    - name: Ensure a cluster is present
      cs_cluster:
        name: kvm-cluster-01
        zone: ch-zrh-ix-01
        hypervisor: KVM
        cluster_type: CloudManaged
      delegate_to: localhost

    - name: Ensure a cluster is disabled
      cs_cluster:
        name: kvm-cluster-01
        zone: ch-zrh-ix-01
        state: disabled
      delegate_to: localhost

    - name: Ensure a cluster is enabled
      cs_cluster:
        name: kvm-cluster-01
        zone: ch-zrh-ix-01
        state: enabled
      delegate_to: localhost

    - name: Ensure a cluster is absent
      cs_cluster:
        name: kvm-cluster-01
        zone: ch-zrh-ix-01
        state: absent
      delegate_to: localhost
