Requirements

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

  • python >= 2.6
  • requests >= 2.18.4
  • google-auth >= 1.3.0

Parameters

Parameter Choices/Defaults Comments
auth_kind
string / required
    Choices:
  • application
  • machineaccount
  • serviceaccount
The type of credential used.
env_type
string
Specifies which Ansible environment you're running this module within.
This should not be set unless you know what you're doing.
This only alters the User Agent string for any API requests.
group_placement_policy
dictionary
Policy for creating snapshots of persistent disks.
availability_domain_count
integer
The number of availability domains instances will be spread across. If two instances are in different availability domain, they will not be put in the same low latency network .
collocation
string
Collocation specifies whether to place VMs inside the same availability domain on the same low-latency network.
Specify `COLLOCATED` to enable collocation. Can only be specified with `vm_count`. If compute instances are created with a COLLOCATED policy, then exactly `vm_count` instances must be created at the same time with the resource policy attached.
Some valid choices include: "COLLOCATED"
vm_count
integer
Number of vms in this placement group.
name
string / required
The name of the resource, provided by the client when initially creating the resource. The resource name must be 1-63 characters long, and comply with RFC1035. Specifically, the name must be 1-63 characters long and match the regular expression `[a-z]([-a-z0-9]*[a-z0-9])`? which means the first character must be a lowercase letter, and all following characters must be a dash, lowercase letter, or digit, except the last character, which cannot be a dash.
project
string
The Google Cloud Platform project to use.
region
string / required
Region where resource policy resides.
scopes
list / elements=string

service_account_contents
jsonarg
The contents of a Service Account JSON file, either in a dictionary or as a JSON string that represents it.
service_account_email
string
An optional service account email address if machineaccount is selected and the user does not wish to use the default email.
service_account_file
path
The path of a Service Account JSON file if serviceaccount is selected as type.
snapshot_schedule_policy
dictionary
Policy for creating snapshots of persistent disks.
retention_policy
dictionary
Retention policy applied to snapshots created by this resource policy.
max_retention_days
integer / required
Maximum age of the snapshot that is allowed to be kept.
on_source_disk_delete
string
Default:
"KEEP_AUTO_SNAPSHOTS"
Specifies the behavior to apply to scheduled snapshots when the source disk is deleted.
Some valid choices include: "KEEP_AUTO_SNAPSHOTS", "APPLY_RETENTION_POLICY"
schedule
dictionary / required
Contains one of an `hourlySchedule`, `dailySchedule`, or `weeklySchedule`.
daily_schedule
dictionary
The policy will execute every nth day at the specified time.
days_in_cycle
integer / required
The number of days between snapshots.
start_time
string / required
This must be in UTC format that resolves to one of 00:00, 04:00, 08:00, 12:00, 16:00, or 20:00. For example, both 13:00-5 and 08:00 are valid.
hourly_schedule
dictionary
The policy will execute every nth hour starting at the specified time.
hours_in_cycle
integer / required
The number of hours between snapshots.
start_time
string / required
Time within the window to start the operations.
It must be in an hourly format "HH:MM", where HH : [00-23] and MM : [00] GMT.
eg: 21:00 .
weekly_schedule
dictionary
Allows specifying a snapshot time for each day of the week.
day_of_weeks
list / elements=dictionary / required

day
string / required
The day of the week to create the snapshot. e.g. MONDAY .
Some valid choices include: "MONDAY", "TUESDAY", "WEDNESDAY", "THURSDAY", "FRIDAY", "SATURDAY", "SUNDAY"
start_time
string / required
Time within the window to start the operations.
It must be in format "HH:MM", where HH : [00-23] and MM : [00-00] GMT.
snapshot_properties
dictionary
Properties with which the snapshots are created, such as labels.
guest_flush
boolean
    Choices:
  • no
  • yes
Whether to perform a 'guest aware' snapshot.
labels
dictionary
A set of key-value pairs.
