name

Name of the operation

hostname

The host name of NSX-T manager

username

Username to connect to NSX-T manager

password

Password to connect to NSX-T manager

display_name

The name of the transport node profile

host_switch_spec

Transport node host switch specification. The HostSwitchSpec is the base class for standard and preconfigured host switch specifications. Only standard host switches are supported in the transport node profile.

resource_type

Must be set to the value StandardHostSwitchSpec

host_switches

Array of transport Node host switches.

host_switch_name

Host switch name. This name will be used to reference a host switch. Default is “nsxDefaultHostSwitch”

host_switch_mode

Operational mode of a HostSwitch. STANDARD, ENS, ENS_INTERRUPT

host_switch_id

The host switch id. This ID will be used to reference a host switch.

host_switch_profiles

Array of host switch profiles. Each entry should have name of the profile and type of the profile

host_switch_profiles:
  -  name: <name of the profile>
     type: <type of the profile>

ip_assignment_spec

Specification for IPs to be used with host switch virtual tunnel endpoints

resource_type: Resource type for IP assignment
ip_pool_name: Name of the IP pool

pnics

Array of Physical NICs connected to the host switch

device_name: device name or key
uplink_name: Uplink name for this Pnic

transport_zone_endpoints

Array of transport zones

transport_zone_name: Name of the transport zone

vmk_install_migration

Array of VmknicNetwork. The vmknic and logical switch mappings

destination_network: The network id to which the ESX vmk interface will be migrated.
device_name: ESX vmk interface name

transport_zone_endpoints

(Optional) This is deprecated. TransportZoneEndPoints should be specified per host switch at StandardHostSwitch through Transport Node or Transport Node Profile configuration. Array of transport zones.

ignore_overridden_hosts

(Optional) Boolean which determines if cluster-level configuration should be applied on overridden hosts. Default: False

description

(Optional) Description

saltext.vmware.states.nsxt_transport_node_profiles.absent(name, hostname, username, password, display_name, verify_ssl=True, cert=None, cert_common_name=None)[source]#

Deletes transport node profile with provided display_name in NSX-T Manager, if present. Fails if multiple transport node profiles are found with same display_name

CLI Example:

salt vm_minion nsxt_transport_node_profiles.absent hostname=nsxt-manager.local username=admin ...

– code-block :: yaml

delete_transport_node_profile:

nsxt_transport_node_profiles.absent:

name: <Name of the operation> hostname: {{ pillar[‘nsxt_manager_hostname’] }} username: {{ pillar[‘nsxt_manager_username’] }} password: {{ pillar[‘nsxt_manager_password’] }} cert: {{ pillar[‘nsxt_manager_certificate’] }} display_name: <display_name of the transport node profile> verify_ssl: <False/True>

name

Name of the operation to perform

hostname

The host name of NSX-T manager

username

Username to connect to NSX-T manager

password

Password to connect to NSX-T manager

display_name

Display name of the transport node profile to delete

cert

Path to the SSL certificate file to connect to NSX-T manager

verify_ssl

Option to enable/disable SSL verification. Enabled by default. If set to False, the certificate validation is skipped.

cert

Path to the SSL certificate file to connect to NSX-T manager. The certificate can be retrieved from browser.

cert_common_name

(Optional) By default, the hostname parameter and the common name in certificate is compared for host name: verification. If the client certificate common name and hostname do not match (in case of self-signed certificates), specify the certificate common name as part of this parameter. This value is then used to compare against certificate common name.
