os_server_metadata – Add/Update/Delete Metadata in Compute Instances from OpenStack¶
New in version 2.6.
Requirements¶
The below requirements are needed on the host that executes this module.
- openstack
- openstacksdk >= 0.12.0
- python >= 2.7
Parameters¶
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/
