## Synopsis

- Create and delete disk offerings for guest VMs.
- Update display_text or display_offering of existing disk offering.

## Requirements

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

- python >= 2.6
- cs >= 0.6.10

## Parameters

Parameter | Choices/Defaults | Comments
--- | --- | ---
api_http_method string | Choices: get post | HTTP method used to query the API endpoint. If not given, the `CLOUDSTACK_METHOD` env variable is considered. As the last option, the value is taken from the ini config file, also see the notes. Fallback value is `get` if not specified.
api_key string |  | API key of the CloudStack API. If not given, the `CLOUDSTACK_KEY` env variable is considered. As the last option, the value is taken from the ini config file, also see the notes.
api_region string | Default: "cloudstack" | Name of the ini section in the `cloustack.ini` file. If not given, the `CLOUDSTACK_REGION` env variable is considered.
api_secret string |  | Secret key of the CloudStack API. If not set, the `CLOUDSTACK_SECRET` env variable is considered. As the last option, the value is taken from the ini config file, also see the notes.
api_timeout integer |  | HTTP timeout in seconds. If not given, the `CLOUDSTACK_TIMEOUT` env variable is considered. As the last option, the value is taken from the ini config file, also see the notes. Fallback value is 10 seconds if not specified.
api_url string |  | URL of the CloudStack API e.g. https://cloud.example.com/client/api. If not given, the `CLOUDSTACK_ENDPOINT` env variable is considered. As the last option, the value is taken from the ini config file, also see the notes.
bytes_read_rate integer |  | Bytes read rate of the disk offering.
bytes_write_rate integer |  | Bytes write rate of the disk offering.
customized boolean | Choices: no ← yes | Whether disk offering iops is custom or not.
disk_size integer |  | Size of the disk offering in GB (1GB = 1,073,741,824 bytes).
display_offering boolean | Choices: no yes | An optional field, whether to display the offering to the end user or not.
display_text string |  | Display text of the disk offering. If not set, `name` will be used as `display_text` while creating.
domain string |  | Domain the disk offering is related to. Public for all domains and subdomains if not set.
hypervisor_snapshot_reserve integer |  | Hypervisor snapshot reserve space as a percent of a volume. Only for managed storage using Xen or VMware.
iops_max integer |  | Max. iops of the disk offering.
iops_min integer |  | Min. iops of the disk offering.
iops_read_rate integer |  | IO requests read rate of the disk offering.
iops_write_rate integer |  | IO requests write rate of the disk offering.
name string / required |  | Name of the disk offering.
provisioning_type string | Choices: thin sparse fat | Provisioning type used to create volumes.
state string | Choices: present ← absent | State of the disk offering.
storage_tags list |  | The storage tags for this disk offering. aliases: storage_tag
storage_type string | Choices: local shared | The storage type of the disk offering.

## Notes

Note

- Ansible uses the `cs` library’s configuration method if credentials are not provided by the arguments `api_url`, `api_key`, `api_secret`. Configuration is read from several locations, in the following order. The `CLOUDSTACK_ENDPOINT`, `CLOUDSTACK_KEY`, `CLOUDSTACK_SECRET` and `CLOUDSTACK_METHOD`. `CLOUDSTACK_TIMEOUT` environment variables. A `CLOUDSTACK_CONFIG` environment variable pointing to an `.ini` file. A `cloudstack.ini` file in the current working directory. A `.cloudstack.ini` file in the users home directory. Optionally multiple credentials and endpoints can be specified using ini sections in `cloudstack.ini`. Use the argument `api_region` to select the section name, default section is `cloudstack`. See https://github.com/exoscale/cs for more information.
- A detailed guide about cloudstack modules can be found in the CloudStack Cloud Guide.
- This module supports check mode.

## Examples

    - name: Create a disk offering with local storage
      cs_disk_offering:
        name: small
        display_text: Small 10GB
        disk_size: 10
        storage_type: local
      delegate_to: localhost

    - name: Create or update a disk offering with shared storage
      cs_disk_offering:
        name: small
        display_text: Small 10GB
        disk_size: 10
        storage_type: shared
        storage_tags: SAN01
      delegate_to: localhost

    - name: Remove a disk offering
      cs_disk_offering:
        name: small
        state: absent
      delegate_to: localhost
