Description

Retrieve information about one or more oVirt/RHV clusters.

This module was called C(ovirt_cluster_facts) before Ansible 2.9, returning C(ansible_facts). Note that the M(mnecas.ovirt.ovirt_cluster_info) module no longer returns C(ansible_facts)!


Requirements

Usage examples

  • Success
    Steampunk Spotter scan finished with no errors, warnings or hints.
# Examples don't contain auth parameter for simplicity,
# look at ovirt_auth module to see how to reuse authentication:

# Gather information about all clusters which names start with C<production>:
- mnecas.ovirt.ovirt_cluster_info:
    pattern:
      name: 'production*'
  register: result
  • Success
    Steampunk Spotter scan finished with no errors, warnings or hints.
- ansible.builtin.debug:
    msg: "{{ result.ovirt_clusters }}"
