satellite_proxmox_compute_resource

This role installs the community foreman plugin ForemanFogProxmox to provide Proxmox as Compute Resource in a Red Hat Satellite

NOTE: This role is not intended for production Red Hat Satellite deployments as usage of a community plugin can render your support obsolete. It is merely ment for a home-lab depployment scenario.

Role Variables

variable	default	required	description
foreman_repo_base_url	'https://yum.theforeman.org/plugins'	false	base URL of the Foreman plugin repository
foreman_repo_name	'foreman-community-plugins'	false	name of the repository created on the Satellite host
foreman_repo_file	'{{ foreman_repo_name }}'	false	file of the repository created on the Satellite host
foreman_repo_description	'Forman community plugins'	false	description of the repository created on the Satellite host
foreman_proxmox_package	'rubygem-foreman_fog_proxmox'	false	name of the package which provides the Proxmox compute resource
foreman_protector_plugin_name	'foreman-protector'	false	name of the foreman-protector to disable during installation of above package

Dependencies

This role depends on the role redhat.satellite_operations.installer (if you are a Red Hat subscriber) or the upstream version theforeman.operations.installer. Should you choose to run the foreman/satellite-installer (run_satellite_installer: true). The role makes use of the common variables which are defined when using redhat.satellite_operations or redhat.satellite.

Used variables from those roles are:

• satellite_server_url
• satellite_username
• satellite_password
• satellite_validate_certs

Should you use the theforeman.* collections, simply re-assigning the variables could be done to make this role usable for Foreman deployments:

---
- hosts: 'all'
  vars:
    satellite_server_url: '{{ foreman_server_url }}'
    [..]
  roles:
    - name: 'ansible-role-satellite_proxmox_compute_resource'
