oVirt Repositories

This role has been migrated to oVirt Ansible Collection, please use latest version from there. This repository is now readonly and no longer used for active development

The ovirt.repositories role is used to set the repositories required for oVirt engine or host installation. By default it copies content of /etc/yum.repos.d/ to /tmp/repo-backup-{{timestamp}}, so it's easy to undo that operation.

Note

Please note that when installing this role from Ansible Galaxy you are instructed to run following command:

$ ansible-galaxy install ovirt.repositories

This will download the role to the directory with the same name as you specified on the command line, in this case ovirt.repositories. But note that it is case sensitive, so if you specify for example OVIRT.repositories it will download the same role, but it will add it to the directory named OVIRT.repositories, so you later always have to use this role with upper case prefix. So be careful how you specify the name of the role on command line.

For the RPM installation we install three legacy names oVirt.repositories, ovirt.repositories and ovirt-repositories. So you can use any of these names. This documentation and examples in this repository are using name ovirt.repositories. oVirt.repositories and ovirt-repositories role names are deprecated.

Requirements

• Ansible version 2.9

Role Variables

Name	Default value	Description
ovirt_repositories_ovirt_release_rpm	UNDEF	URL of oVirt release package, which contains required repositories configuration.
ovirt_repositories_use_subscription_manager	False	If true it will use repos from subscription manager and the value of ovirt_repositories_ovirt_release_rpm will be ignored.
ovirt_repositories_ovirt_version	4.4	oVirt release version (Supported versions [4.1, 4.2, 4.3, 4.4]). Will be used to enable the required repositories and enable modules.
ovirt_repositories_target_host	engine	Type of the target machine, which should be one of [engine, host, rhvh]. This parameter takes effect only in case ovirt_repositories_use_subscription_manager is set to True. If incorrect version or target is specified no repositories are enabled.
ovirt_repositories_rh_username	UNDEF	Username to use for subscription manager.
ovirt_repositories_rh_password	UNDEF	Password to use for subscription manager.
ovirt_repositories_pool_ids	UNDEF	List of pools ids to subscribe to.
ovirt_repositories_pools	UNDEF	Specify a list of subscription pool names. Use ovirt_repositories_pool_ids instead if possible, as it is much faster.
ovirt_repositories_subscription_manager_repos	[]	List of repositories to enable by subscription-manager. By default we have list of repositories for each {{ovirt_repositories_target_host}}_{{ovirt_repositories_ovirt_version}} in vars folder.
ovirt_repositories_repos_backup	True	When set to False, original repositories won't be backed up.
ovirt_repositories_repos_backup_path	/tmp/repo-backup-{{timestamp}}	Directory to backup the original repositories configuration
