Argument reference

• template_uuid - (Required)[string] The UUID of the template for creating a CUBE server; the available templates for CUBE servers can be found on the templates resource

• name - (Required)[string] The name of the server.

• datacenter_id - (Required)[string] The ID of a Virtual Data Center.

• hostname - (Optional)(Computed) The hostname of the resource. Allowed characters are a-z, 0-9 and - (minus). Hostname should not start with minus and should not be longer than 63 characters. If no value provided explicitly, it will be populated with the name of the server

• image_name - (Optional)[string] The name, ID or alias of the image. May also be a snapshot ID. It is required if licence_type is not provided. Attribute is immutable.

• availability_zone - (Optional)[string] The availability zone in which the server should exist. This property is immutable.

• licence_type - (Optional)[string] Sets the OS type of the server.

• vm_state - (Optional)[string] Sets the power state of the cube server. E.g: RUNNING or SUSPENDED.

• volume - (Required) See the Volume section.

• nic - (Required) See the Nic section.

• boot_volume - (Computed) The associated boot volume.

• boot_cdrom - DEPRECATED Please refer to ionoscloud_server_boot_device_selection (Optional)[string] The associated boot drive, if any. Must be the UUID of a bootable CDROM image that can be retrieved using the ionoscloud_image data source.

• boot_image - (Optional)[string] The image or snapshot UUID / name. May also be an image alias. It is required if licence_type is not provided.

• primary_nic - (Computed) The associated NIC.

• primary_ip - (Computed) The associated IP address.

• firewallrule_id - (Computed) The associated firewall rule.

• ssh_key_path - (Optional)[list] List of paths to files containing a public SSH key that will be injected into IonosCloud provided Linux images. Required for IonosCloud Linux images. Required if image_password is not provided.

• image_password - (Optional)[string] Required if ssh_key_path is not provided.

• security_groups_ids - (Optional) The list of Security Group IDs for the resource.

• allow_replace - (Optional)[bool] When set to true, allows the update of immutable fields by first destroying and then re-creating the server.

⚠️ Warning: allow_replace - lets you update immutable fields, but it first destroys and then re-creates the server in order to do it. This field should be used with care, understanding the risks.

⚠ WARNING

Image_name under volume level is deprecated, please use image_name under server level

⚠ WARNING

For creating a CUBE server, you can not set volume.size argument.

Import

Resource Server can be imported using the resource id and the datacenter id, e.g.

terraform import ionoscloud_cube_server.myserver datacenter uuid/server uuid

Notes

Please note that for any secondary volume, you need to set the licence_type property to UNKNOWN
