New in version 1.0.0.

Changed in version 2.0.0.

maintainer:

<devops@eitr.tech>

configuration:

This module requires Azure Resource Manager credentials to be passed via acct. Note that the authentication parameters are case sensitive.

Required provider parameters:

if using username and password:
  • subscription_id
  • username
  • password
if using a service principal:
  • subscription_id
  • tenant
  • client_id
  • secret

Optional provider parameters:

cloud_environment: Used to point the cloud driver to different API endpoints, such as Azure GovCloud. Possible values:

  • AZURE_PUBLIC_CLOUD (default)
  • AZURE_CHINA_CLOUD
  • AZURE_US_GOV_CLOUD
  • AZURE_GERMAN_CLOUD

Example acct setup for Azure Resource Manager authentication:

azurerm:
    default:
        subscription_id: 3287abc8-f98a-c678-3bde-326766fd3617
        tenant: ABCDEFAB-1234-ABCD-1234-ABCDEFABCDEF
        client_id: ABCDEFAB-1234-ABCD-1234-ABCDEFABCDEF
        secret: XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX
        cloud_environment: AZURE_PUBLIC_CLOUD
    user_pass_auth:
        subscription_id: 3287abc8-f98a-c678-3bde-326766fd3617
        username: fletch
        password: 123pass

The authentication parameters can also be passed as a dictionary of keyword arguments to the connection_auth parameter of each state, but this is not preferred and could be deprecated in the future.

  • vm_size – The size of the virtual machine.
  • admin_username – Specifies the name of the administrator account.
  • os_disk_create_option – (attach, from_image, or empty) Specifies how the virtual machine should be created. The “attach” value is used when you are using a specialized disk to create the virtual machine. The “from_image” value is used when you are using an image to create the virtual machine. If you are using a platform image, you also use the image_reference element. If you are using a marketplace image, you also use the plan element.

  • subnet – Subnet to which the network interfaces will be attached.
  • network_interfaces – A list of network interface references ({“id”: “/full/path/to/object”}) to attach.
  • os_managed_disk – A managed disk resource ID or dictionary containing the managed disk parameters. If a dictionary is provided, “storage_account_type” can be passed in additional to the “id”. Storage account type for the managed disk can include: ‘Standard_LRS’, ‘Premium_LRS’, ‘StandardSSD_LRS’, ‘UltraSSD_LRS’. NOTE: UltraSSD_LRS can only be used with data disks.
  • os_disk_vhd_uri – The virtual hard disk for the OS ({“uri”: “/full/path/to/object”}).
  • os_disk_image_uri – The source user image virtual hard disk ({“uri”: “/full/path/to/object”}). The virtual hard disk will be copied before being attached to the virtual machine. If SourceImage is provided, the destination virtual hard drive must not exist.
  • os_type – (linux or windows) This property allows you to specify the type of the OS that is included in the disk if creating a VM from user-image or a specialized VHD.
  • os_disk_name – The OS disk name.
  • os_disk_caching – (read_only, read_write, or none) Specifies the caching requirements. Defaults to “None” for Standard storage and “ReadOnly” for Premium storage.
  • os_write_accel – Boolean value specifies whether write accelerator should be enabled or disabled on the disk.
  • os_ephemeral_disk – Boolean value to enable ephemeral “diff” OS disk. Ephemeral OS disks are created on the local virtual machine (VM) storage and not saved to the remote Azure Storage.
  • ultra_ssd_enabled – The flag that enables or disables a capability to have one or more managed data disks with UltraSSD_LRS storage account type on the VM or VMSS. Managed disks with storage account type UltraSSD_LRS can be added to a virtual machine or virtual machine scale set only if this property is enabled.
  • image – A pipe-delimited representation of an image to use, in the format of “publisher|offer|sku|version”. Examples - “OpenLogic|CentOS|7.7|latest” or “Canonical|UbuntuServer|18.04-LTS|latest”
  • boot_diags_enabled – Enables boots diagnostics on the Virtual Machine. Required for use of the diag_storage_uri parameter.
  • diag_storage_uri – Enables boots diagnostics on the Virtual Machine by passing the URI of the storage account to use for placing the console output and screenshot.
  • admin_password – Specifies the password of the administrator account. Note that there are minimum length, maximum length, and complexity requirements imposed on this password. See the Azure documentation for details.
  • force_admin_password – A Boolean flag that represents whether or not the admin password should be updated. If it is set to True, then the admin password will be updated if the virtual machine already exists. If it is set to False, then the password will not be updated unless other parameters also need to be updated. Defaults to False.
  • provision_vm_agent – Indicates whether virtual machine agent should be provisioned on the virtual machine. When this property is not specified in the request body, default behavior is to set it to true. This will ensure that VM Agent is installed on the VM so that extensions can be added to the VM later. If attempting to set this value, os_type should also be set in order to ensure the proper OS configuration is used.
  • userdata_file – This parameter can contain a local or web path for a userdata script. If a local file is used, then the contents of that file will override the contents of the userdata parameter. If a web source is used, then the userdata parameter should contain the command to execute the script file. For instance, if a file location of https://raw.githubusercontent.com/saltstack/salt-bootstrap/stable/bootstrap-salt.sh is used then the userdata parameter would contain “./bootstrap-salt.sh” along with any desired arguments. Note that PowerShell execution policy may cause issues here. For PowerShell files, considered signed scripts or the more insecure “powershell -ExecutionPolicy Unrestricted -File ./bootstrap-salt.ps1” addition to the command.
  • userdata – This parameter is used to pass text to be executed on a system. The native shell will be used on a given host operating system.
  • max_price – Specifies the maximum price you are willing to pay for a Azure Spot VM/VMSS. This price is in US Dollars. This price will be compared with the current Azure Spot price for the VM size. Also, the prices are compared at the time of create/update of Azure Spot VM/VMSS and the operation will only succeed if max_price is greater than the current Azure Spot price. The max_price will also be used for evicting a Azure Spot VM/VMSS if the current Azure Spot price goes beyond the maxPrice after creation of VM/VMSS. Possible values are any decimal value greater than zero (example: 0.01538) or -1 indicates default price to be up-to on-demand. You can set the max_price to -1 to indicate that the Azure Spot VM/VMSS should not be evicted for price reasons. Also, the default max price is -1 if it is not provided by you.
  • priority – (low or regular) Specifies the priority for the virtual machine.
  • eviction_policy – (deallocate or delete) Specifies the eviction policy for the Azure Spot virtual machine.
  • license_type – (Windows_Client or Windows_Server) Specifies that the image or disk that is being used was licensed on-premises. This element is only used for images that contain the Windows Server operating system.
  • zones – A list of the virtual machine zones.
  • availability_set – The resource ID of the availability set that the virtual machine should be assigned to. Virtual machines specified in the same availability set are allocated to different nodes to maximize availability. For more information about availability sets, see Manage the availability of virtual machines. Currently, a VM can only be added to availability set at creation time. An existing VM cannot be added to an availability set. This parameter cannot be specified if the virtual_machine_scale_set parameter is also specified.
  • virtual_machine_scale_set – The resource ID of the virtual machine scale set that the virtual machine should be assigned to. Virtual machines specified in the same virtual machine scale set are allocated to different nodes to maximize availability. Currently, a VM can only be added to virtual machine scale set at creation time. An existing VM cannot be added to a virtual machine scale set. This parameter cannot be specified if the availability_set parameter is also specified.
  • proximity_placement_group – The resource ID of the proximity placement group that the virtual machine should be assigned to.
  • host – The resource ID of the dedicated host that the virtual machine resides in. This parameter cannot be specified if the host_group parameter is also specified.
  • host_group – The resource ID of the dedicated host group that the virtual machine resides in. This parameter cannot be specified if the host parameter is also specified.
  • extensions_time_budget – Specifies the time alloted for all extensions to start. The time duration should be between 15 minutes and 120 minutes (inclusive) and should be specified in ISO 8601 format. The default value is 90 minutes (PT1H30M).
  • tags – A dictionary of strings can be passed as tag metadata to the virtual machine object.
  • connection_auth – A dictionary with subscription and authentication parameters to be used in connecting to the Azure Resource Manager API.
Virtual Machine Disk Encryption:

If you would like to enable disk encryption within the virtual machine you must set the enable_disk_enc parameter to True. Disk encryption utilizes a VM published by Microsoft.Azure.Security of extension type AzureDiskEncryptionForLinux or AzureDiskEncryption, depending on your virtual machine OS. More information about Disk Encryption and its requirements can be found in the links below.

Disk Encryption for Windows Virtual Machines: https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/virtual-machines/windows/disk-encryption-overview

Disk Encryption for Linux Virtual Machines: https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/virtual-machines/linux/disk-encryption-overview

The following parameters may be used to implement virtual machine disk encryption:

  • param enable_disk_enc: This boolean flag will represent whether disk encryption has been enabled for the virtual machine. This is a required parameter.
  • disk_enc_keyvault: The resource ID of the key vault containing the disk encryption key, which is a Key Vault Secret. This is a required parameter.
  • disk_enc_volume_type: The volume type(s) that will be encrypted. Possible values include: ‘OS’, ‘Data’, and ‘All’. This is a required parameter.
  • disk_enc_kek_url: The Key Identifier URL for a Key Encryption Key (KEK). The KEK is used as an additional layer of security for encryption keys. Azure Disk Encryption will use the KEK to wrap the encryption secrets before writing to the Key Vault. The KEK must be in the same vault as the encryption secrets. This is an optional parameter.
Attaching Data Disks:

Data disks can be attached by passing a list of dictionaries in the data_disks parameter. The dictionaries in the list can have the following parameters:

  • lun: (optional int) Specifies the logical unit number of the data disk. This value is used to identify data disks within the VM and therefore must be unique for each data disk attached to a VM. If not provided, we increment the lun designator based upon the index within the provided list of disks.
  • name: (optional str) The disk name. Defaults to “{vm_name}-datadisk{lun}”
  • vhd: (optional str or dict) Virtual hard disk to use. If a URI string is provided, it will be nested under a “uri” key in a dictionary as expected by the SDK.
  • image: (optional str or dict) The source user image virtual hard disk. The virtual hard disk will be copied before being attached to the virtual machine. If image is provided, the destination virtual hard drive must not exist. If a URI string is provided, it will be nested under a “uri” key in a dictionary as expected by the SDK.
  • caching: (optional str - read_only, read_write, or none) Specifies the caching requirements. Defaults to “None” for Standard storage and “ReadOnly” for Premium storage.
  • write_accelerator_enabled: (optional bool - True or False) Specifies whether write accelerator should be enabled or disabled on the disk.
  • create_option: (optional str - attach, from_image, or empty) Specifies how the virtual machine should be created. The “attach” value is used when you are using a specialized disk to create the virtual machine. The “from_image” value is used when you are using an image to create the virtual machine. If you are using a platform image, you also use the image_reference element. If you are using a marketplace image, you also use the plan element.
  • disk_size_gb: (optional int) Specifies the size of an empty data disk in gigabytes. This element can be used to overwrite the size of the disk in a virtual machine image.
  • managed_disk: (optional str or dict) The managed disk parameters. If an ID string is provided, it will be nested under an “id” key in a dictionary as expected by the SDK. If a dictionary is provided, the “storage_account_type” parameter can be passed (accepts (Standard|Premium)_LRS or (Standard|Ultra)SSD_LRS).
