Common

Name

Description

Default

node_ip

The DNS hostname or IP address of the Rubrik cluster. By defeault, the module will attempt to read this value from the rubrik_cdm_node_ip environment variable. If this environment variable is not present it will need to be manually specified here or in the `provider' parameter.

password

The password used to authenticate the connection to the Rubrik cluster. By defeault, the module will attempt to read this value from the rubrik_cdm_password environment variable. If this environment variable is not present it will need to be manually specified here or in the `provider' parameter.

username

The username used to authenticate the connection to the Rubrik cluster. By defeault, the module will attempt to read this value from the rubrik_cdm_username environment variable. If this environment variable is not present it will need to be manually specified here or in the `provider' parameter.

api_token

The api token used to authenticate the connection to the Rubrik cluster. By defeault, the module will attempt to read this value from the rubrik_cdm_token environment variable. If this environment variable is not present it will need to be manually specified here or in the `provider' parameter.

provider

Convenience method that allows all connection arguments (node_ip',username', `password') to be passed as a dict object. By default, the module will attempt to read these parameters from the rubrik_cdm_node_ip, rubrik_cdm_username, and rubrik_cdm_password environment variables.

Note: The username and password must be supplied together and may not be provided if the api_token variable is present
