Creating BIG-IP ephemeral nodes using Ansible
Hello F5 team.
We are using Ansible to deploy an F5 BIG-IP cluster in AWS, including the configuration. I am trying to create an FQDN ephemeral node using the bigip_node module. The node is an ALB, the IP addresses tends to change daily, which is why it needs to be ephemeral. Here is the code I am using as a test:
- bigip_node:
server: "big-ip-1.example.com"
user: "admin"
password: "password"
validate_certs: no
state: "present"
partition: "Common"
host: "app1-alb.example.com"
name: "app1"
monitor_state: enabled
session_state: enabled
"msg": "received exception: Server raised fault: 'Exception caught in LocalLB::urn:iControl:LocalLB/NodeAddressV2::create()\nCommon::InvalidArgument\n'
Does the bigip_node module support ephemeral nodes or will I need to use a different approach?
