[vsphere_guest] esxi.hostname is mandatory?

[Martino Viganò]

Hello,

I have to create a new virtual machine using the vsphere_guest form.

I will not place my new virtual machine on a single host but I want to create the cluster, and I want it to vmware host more appropriate to place it.

Is there a way to do it?

My play book is done this way:

 vcenter_hostname: xxxx

        username: xxxx

        guest: martino_ansible

        password: xxxxx

        power_on_after_clone: ​​no

        clusters: Cluster

        were: present

        vm_extra_config:

                vcpu.hotadd: yes

                mem.hotadd: yes

                notes: ansible VM test

                folder: QA

        vm_disk:

           disk1:

            size_gb: 10

            type: thin

            datastore: vmware6_V1

        vm_nic:

           nic1:

            type: vmxnet3

            network: 103-server-qa

            NETWORK_TYPE: Standard

        vm_hardware:

           memory_mb: 1024

           num_cpus: 1

           OSID: centos64Guest

           scsi: paravirtual

        resource_pool: Reitek

        esxi:

           datacenter: Reitek

           hostname: Cluster

When I run the playbook, however, I get this error:

TASK [vsphere_guest] ********************************************** *************

fatal: [127.0.0.1]: FAILED! => { "Changed": false, "failed": false, "msg": "Can not find esx host named: Cluster"}
