# Datacenter ## datacenter This is a simple module that supports creating or removing datacenters. A datacenter is required before you can create servers. This module has a dependency on ionoscloud >= 6.0.2 ### Example Syntax ```yaml name: Create datacenter ionoscloudsdk.ionoscloud.datacenter: name: 'AnsibleAutoTestCompute' description: 'Ansible Compute test description' location: 'gb/lhr' wait: true register: datacenter_response name: Update datacenter no change 1 ionoscloudsdk.ionoscloud.datacenter: datacenter: 'AnsibleAutoTestCompute' name: 'AnsibleAutoTestCompute' description: 'Ansible Compute test description CHANGED' state: update allow_replace: false register: datacenter_response_no_change2 name: Remove datacenter ionoscloudsdk.ionoscloud.datacenter: datacenter: '' name: 'AnsibleAutoTestCompute' state: absent wait: true register: deleted_datacenter ``` ### Returned object ```json { "changed": false, "failed": false, "action": "create", "datacenter": { "entities": { "lans": { "links": null, "href": "https://api.ionos.com/cloudapi/v6/datacenters/9683f0c0-e311-4194-bddc-a99bb2babf82/lans", "id": "9683f0c0-e311-4194-bddc-a99bb2babf82/lans", "items": null, "limit": null, "offset": null, "type": "collection" }, "loadbalancers": { "links": null, "href": "https://api.ionos.com/cloudapi/v6/datacenters/9683f0c0-e311-4194-bddc-a99bb2babf82/loadbalancers", "id": "9683f0c0-e311-4194-bddc-a99bb2babf82/loadbalancers", "items": null, "limit": null, "offset": null, "type": "collection" }, "natgateways": { "links": null, "href": "https://api.ionos.com/cloudapi/v6/datacenters/9683f0c0-e311-4194-bddc-a99bb2babf82/natgateways", "id": "9683f0c0-e311-4194-bddc-a99bb2babf82/natgateways", "items": null, "limit": null, "offset": null, "type": "collection" }, "networkloadbalancers": { "links": null, "href": "https://api.ionos.com/cloudapi/v6/datacenters/9683f0c0-e311-4194-bddc-a99bb2babf82/networkloadbalancers", "id": "9683f0c0-e311-4194-bddc-a99bb2babf82/networkloadbalancers", "items": null, "limit": null, "offset": null, "type": "collection" }, "servers": { "links": null, "href": "https://api.ionos.com/cloudapi/v6/datacenters/9683f0c0-e311-4194-bddc-a99bb2babf82/servers", "id": "9683f0c0-e311-4194-bddc-a99bb2babf82/servers", "items": null, "limit": null, "offset": null, "type": "collection" }, "volumes": { "links": null, "href": "https://api.ionos.com/cloudapi/v6/datacenters/9683f0c0-e311-4194-bddc-a99bb2babf82/volumes", "id": "9683f0c0-e311-4194-bddc-a99bb2babf82/volumes", "items": null, "limit": null, "offset": null, "type": "collection" } }, "href": "https://api.ionos.com/cloudapi/v6/datacenters/9683f0c0-e311-4194-bddc-a99bb2babf82", "id": "9683f0c0-e311-4194-bddc-a99bb2babf82", "metadata": { "created_by": "", "created_by_user_id": "", "created_date": "2023-05-30T11:24:38+00:00", "etag": "f157640f8bc27aba358aed5cfbd74bf2", "last_modified_by": "", "last_modified_by_user_id": "", "last_modified_date": "2023-05-30T11:24:38+00:00", "state": "AVAILABLE" }, "properties": { "cpu_architecture": [ { "cpu_family": "INTEL_SKYLAKE", "max_cores": 4, "max_ram": 20480, "vendor": "GenuineIntel" } ], "description": "Ansible Compute test description", "features": [ "cloud-init-private-image", "vm-autoscaling", "ssd", "vnf-nat", "k8s", "ssd-storage-zoning", "nic-hot-plug", "vnf-lb", "monitoring", "nic-hot-unplug", "pcc", "contract-identities", "disk-vio-hot-unplug", "disk-vio-hot-plug", "cloud-init", "flow-logs", "cpu-hot-plug", "core-vps", "k8s-cidr-s3-support", "private-loadbalancer", "mem-hot-plug", "vnf-alb" ], "location": "gb/lhr", "name": "AnsibleAutoTestCompute", "sec_auth_protection": false, "version": 2 }, "type": "datacenter" } } ``` #### For more examples please check out the tests [here](https://github.com/ionos-cloud/module-ansible/tree/master/tests/compute-engine). ***NOTE:*** **If you are using a versions 7.0.0 and up**: modules can replace resources if certain set parameters differ from the results found in the API! ### Parameters that can trigger a resource replacement: * location ## state: **present** ```yaml name: Create datacenter ionoscloudsdk.ionoscloud.datacenter: name: 'AnsibleAutoTestCompute' description: 'Ansible Compute test description' location: 'gb/lhr' wait: true register: datacenter_response ``` #### Available parameters for state **present**:
