These can be set in the inventory file, group_vars or passed to the playbook from the CLI. The variables are: + +### rhsm_method + +Subscription Manager method to use for registration. Valid values are: + +* **satellite** - Use a Satellite server. Additional variables required include **rhsm_server**, **rhsm_org** and either (**rhsm_username** and **rhsm_password**) or **rhsm_activationkey** +* **hosted** - Use Red Hat's CDN. Additional variables required are **rhsm_server** (defaults to RHSM CDN) and **rhsm_username** and **rhsm_password** +* none/false/blank will disable any subscription manager activities (this is the default if no parameters are set) + +Default: none + +### rhsm_server + +Subscription Manager server hostname. If using a Satellite server set the FQDN here. If using RHSM Hosted this value is ignored. + +Default: none + +### rhsm_username + +Subscription Manager username. Required for RHSM Hosted. Can be optionally used for Satellite, but it may be better to use **rhsm_activationkey** for this. + +Default: none + +### rhsm_password + +Subscription Manager password. Required for RHSM Hosted. Can be optionally used for Satellite, but it may be better to use **rhsm_activationkey** for this. + +Default: none + +### rhsm_org + +Optional Satellite Subscription Manager Organization. Required for Satellite, ignored if using RHSM Hosted. + +Default: none + +### rhsm_activationkey + +Optional Satellite Subscription Manager Activation Key, use this instead of **rhsm_username** and **rhsm_password** if using Satellite to provide repositories and authentication in a key instead. + +Default: none + +### rhsm_pool + +Optional Subscription Manager pool, determine this by running **subscription-manager list --available** on a registered system. Valid for RHSM Hosted or Satellite. Specifying **rhsm_activationkey** will ignore this option. + +Default: none + +### rhsm_repos + +Optional Repositories to enable, this can also be specified in the **rhsm_activationkey**. Valid for RHSM Hosted or Satellite. Specifying **rhsm_activationkey** will ignore this option. + +NOTE: If specifying this value in an inventory file as opposed to group_vars, be sure to define it as a proper list as such: + +rhsm_repos='["rhel-7-server-rpms", "rhel-7-server-ose-3.1-rpms", "rhel-7-server-extras-rpms"]' + +Default: none + +## Pre-tasks + +A number of variable checks are performed before any tasks to ensure the proper parameters are set. To include these checks call the pre_task yaml before any roles: + +``` + pre_tasks: + - include: roles/subscription-manager/pre_tasks/pre_tasks.yml +``` + +## Tasks + +The bulk of the work is performed in the main.yml for this role. The pre-task play will set a variable which can be checked to contitionally include this role as such: + +``` + roles: + - { role: subscription-manager, when: not hostvars.localhost.rhsm_skip, tags: 'subscription-manager' } +``` + +## Running the Playbook + +To register to RHSM Hosted with username and password: + +``` +ansible-playbook -i inventory/ose-provision ose-provision.yml -e "rhsm_method='hosted' rhsm_username=vvaldez rhsm_password='hunter2' openstack_key_name='vvaldez'" +``` + +To register to a Satellite server with an activation key: + +``` +ansible-playbook -i inventory/ose-provision ose-provision.yml -e "rhsm_server='10.12.32.1' rhsm_org='cloud_practice' rhsm_activationkey='rhel-7-ose-3-1' openstack_key_name='vvaldez' rhsm_method='satellite'" +``` + +To ignore any Subscription Manager activities, simple do not set any parameters or explicitly set **rhsm_method** to false. -- cgit v1.2.3
