NSX LWRP Cookbook
============
This cookbook provides the `nsx_transport_node` resource, allowing to create, update and delete transport nodes via communicating with the API of an NSX controller.
Usage
------------
See `nsx::hypervisor`:
```ruby
include_recipe 'nsx::default'
controller = node[:nsx][:controllers].first
nsx_transport_node node[:fqdn] do
nsx_controller controller
client_pem_file '/etc/openvswitch/ovsclient-cert.pem'
integration_bridge_id 'br-int'
tunnel_probe_random_vlan true
transport_connectors([
{
"transport_zone_uuid" => node[:nsx][:default_tz_uuid],
"ip_address" => node[:ipaddress],
"type" => "STTConnector"
}
])
end
```
Requirements
------------
- `chef_gem 'faraday'`, included in `nsx::default`
Attributes
----------
In the `nsx` "namespace", i.e. `node[:nsx]`, the following attributes are expected:
- `controllers`, for example an array like this:
```ruby
"nsx" => {
"controllers" => [
{
:host => '10.127.1.10',
:port => 443,
:username => 'admin',
:password => 'admin'
}
],
# ...
}
```
- UUIDs:
- `nsx_cluster_uuid`
- `default_tz_uuid`
- `default_l3_gateway_service_uuid`
- `default_l3_gateway_service_uuid`
- `default_iface_name`
