ansible-vsphere_guest's Introduction

Ansible module that allows you to define and create a VMWare vsphere guest OS instance which can then be booted to start an automated install.

Here is an example of defining the guest:

- hosts: 127.0.0.1
  connection: local
  user: username
  sudo: false
  gather_facts: false
  serial: 1

  tasks:

    - vsphere_guest: > 
        vcenter_hostname='vcenter.host.edu' user='username' password='password' 
        datacenter="Dev_Datacenter" datastore="hit04_sata_datastore04" esxi_hostname="esx15.mgt.host.edu" 
        vm_name="romeotestvm" vm_memory_mb=2048 vm_num_cpus=2 vm_notes="woohoo" guestosid="rhel6_64Guest"
        power_on=yes
        args:
            vm_cdrom:
                type: "iso"
                iso_path: "hit04_iso_datastore/path/to/kickstart_boot.iso"
            vm_extra_config:
                vcpu.hotadd: 'TRUE'
                mem.hotadd:  'TRUE'            
            vm_disk:                
                disk1:

                    datastore: "hit04_sata_datastore05"
                    type: "thin"
