community.general.oneview_ethernet_network module – Manage OneView Ethernet Network resources

Note

This module is part of the community.general collection (version 5.8.3).

You might already have this collection installed if you are using the ansible package. It is not included in ansible-core. To check whether it is installed, run ansible-galaxy collection list.

To install it, use: ansible-galaxy collection install community.general. You need further requirements to be able to use this module, see Requirements for details.

To use it in a playbook, specify: community.general.oneview_ethernet_network.

Synopsis

• Provides an interface to manage Ethernet Network resources. Can create, update, or delete.

Requirements

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

• hpOneView >= 3.1.0

• python >= 2.7.9

Parameters

Parameter	Comments
api_version integer	OneView API Version.
config path	Path to a .json configuration file containing the OneView client configuration. The configuration file is optional and when used should be present in the host running the ansible commands. If the file path is not provided, the configuration will be loaded from environment variables. For links to example configuration files or how to use the environment variables verify the notes section.
data dictionary / required	List with Ethernet Network properties.
hostname string	IP address or hostname for the appliance.
image_streamer_hostname string	IP address or hostname for the HPE Image Streamer REST API.
password string	Password for API authentication.
state string	Indicates the desired state for the Ethernet Network resource. - present will ensure data properties are compliant with OneView. - absent will remove the resource from OneView, if it exists. - default_bandwidth_reset will reset the network connection template to the default. Choices: "present" ← (default) "absent" "default_bandwidth_reset"
username string	Username for API authentication.
validate_etag boolean	When the ETag Validation is enabled, the request will be conditionally processed only if the current ETag for the resource matches the ETag provided in the data. Choices: false true ← (default)

Notes

    state: present
    data:
      name: 'Test Ethernet Network'

      bandwidth:
          maximumBandwidth: 3000
          typicalBandwidth: 2000
  delegate_to: localhost

- name: Ensure that the Ethernet Network is present with name 'Renamed Ethernet Network'
  community.general.oneview_ethernet_network:
    config: '/etc/oneview/oneview_config.json'

    config: '/etc/oneview/oneview_config.json'
    state: absent
    data:
      name: 'New Ethernet Network'
  delegate_to: localhost

- name: Create Ethernet networks in bulk
  community.general.oneview_ethernet_network:
    config: '/etc/oneview/oneview_config.json'
    state: present
    data:
      vlanIdRange: '1-10,15,17'
      purpose: General
      namePrefix: TestNetwork
      smartLink: false
      privateNetwork: false
      bandwidth:
        maximumBandwidth: 10000
        typicalBandwidth: 2000
  delegate_to: localhost

- name: Reset to the default network connection template
  community.general.oneview_ethernet_network:
    config: '/etc/oneview/oneview_config.json'
    state: default_bandwidth_reset
    data:
      name: 'Test Ethernet Network'
  delegate_to: localhost

Return Values

Common return values are documented here, the following are the fields unique to this module:

Key	Description
ethernet_network dictionary	Has the facts about the Ethernet Networks. Returned: On state ‘present’. Can be null.
ethernet_network_bulk dictionary	Has the facts about the Ethernet Networks affected by the bulk insert. Returned: When ‘vlanIdRange’ attribute is in data argument. Can be null.
ethernet_network_connection_template dictionary	Has the facts about the Ethernet Network Connection Template. Returned: On state ‘default_bandwidth_reset’. Can be null.
