I've setup a way to provision a RHEL VM from a template using the
VMware_guest module (shown below) I'm now trying to figure out away of
shortening the AWX/Tower survey I have so that the user doesn't need to add
so much info. (We currently have a script that provisions that is very
bespoke and can do stuff like find the VLAN name from the IP given probably
from vSphere API etc.)
The first item I would like to shorten is using the IP submitted via the
survey then using some method to match that to a VLAN name, whether that's
through vSphere API, or a Vars list or anything else i'm quite stuck.
Does anyone have any ideas to do this or any other tasks to reduce the
amount of info required?
Our current script only needs: cluster name, size of VM (1_2 for 1 CPU, 2
GB memory), hostname, IP, folder to store in and vSphere credntials
Playbook:
- name: Create VM from template
vmware_guest:
validate_certs: False
hostname: "{{ vcenter_hostname }}"
username: "{{ vcenter_user }}"
password: "{{ vcenter_pass }}"
cluster: "{{ cluster }}"
folder: "{{ folder }}"
datacenter: DCA
name: "{{ vm_name }}"
template: "{{ vmtemplate }}"
disk:
- size_gb: 50
type: thin
datastore: "{{ datastore }}"
networks:
- name: "{{ network }}"
device_type: vmxnet3
ip: "{{ vm_ip }}"
netmask: "{{ netmask }}"
gateway: "{{ gateway }}"
hardware:
num_cpus: "{{ vm_cpu }}"
memory_mb: "{{ vm_memory }}"
wait_for_ip_address: True
state: present
register: newvm
