Ansible для VMware на примерах: пошаговое руководство по автоматизации вашей инфраструктуры VMware
Learn to use the Ansible open source IT automation tool to automate your VMware infrastructure. This book contains all of the obvious and not-so-obvious best practices of Ansible automation. Each lesson summarizes a specific use case for the modern VMware infrastructure and is focused on a single module from the most important parameter, including live demo of code and real-life usage.
You'll configure the Ansible Controller to interact with VMware infrastructure using the “community.VMware” Ansible documentation collection and the appropriate Python libraries. Next, learn how to automate the creation of a virtual machine manually and from a template, start and stop using the shutdown and forced-power off a Virtual Machine, take and delete and snapshot, add a new hard disk and expand a currently attached hard disk, as well as gather information for data centers, clusters, host systems, and virtual machines.
Using a Python virtual environment is a convenient way to use the Ansible for VMware resources without interfering with your operating system. It’s very useful when you want to use the latest releases not yet available as a package or a specific version of the resources. It’s also a nice way to maintain the community.vmware Ansible collection and the related Python libraries’ dependencies without interfering with your operating system. A Python virtual environment is a confined space created by Python where you can use a specific version of the Python libraries and resources. Configure your Python virtual environment for Ansible VMware community.vmware collection to use the latest releases of Python with the latest pyVmomi and VMware vSphere Automation SDK for Python libraries. This initial configuration is sometimes a roadblock for some VMware users to start using Ansible.
By the end of this book, you'll be well-versed in efficiently maintaining a VMware infrastructure with Ansible Automation. You'll also be able to save time and reduce manual errors using simple human-readable automation technology.
