  • false

  • true ← (default)

vm_attrs

aliases: vm_attributes

dictionary

Hash containing the data of vm_attrs

Attributes

Attribute

Support

Description

check_mode

Support: full

Can run in check_mode and return changed status prediction without modifying the entity

diff_mode

Support: full

Will return details on what has changed (or possibly needs changing in check_mode), when in diff mode

Examples

- name: "Create compute attribute"
  theforeman.foreman.compute_attribute:
    username: "admin"
    password: "changeme"

    compute_profile: "Test Compute Profile"
    compute_resource: "Test Compute Resource"
    vm_attrs:
      memory_mb: '2048'
      cpu: '2'
    state: present

- name: "Update compute attribute"
  theforeman.foreman.compute_attribute:
    username: "admin"
    password: "changeme"
    server_url: "https://foreman.example.com"
    compute_profile: "Test Compute Profile"
    compute_resource: "Test Compute Resource"
