[ovirt-users] Tags in Ovirt
Hi all
I'm trying to dump out a list of all tags and the VMs attached. I need to
do this as I wrote an Ansible task to attach some VMs to some tags and
ended up removing other VMs from these tags which caused some issues.
I think I've fixed my problem but I want to take a backup of the tags and
attached VMs but using ovirt.ovirt.ovirt_tag_info I can't see how to list
all tags with the attached VMs.
I've tried various incantations like:
- ovirt.ovirt.ovirt_tag_info:
auth: "{{ ovirt_auth}}"
name: 'veeam-tier*'
fetch_nested: true
nested_attributes:
- vm
register: result
but all I get is:
ok: [localhost] => {
"result": {
"changed": false,
"deprecations": [
{
"msg": "The 'fetch_nested' and 'nested_attributes' are
deprecated please use 'follow' parameter",
"version": "3.0.0"
}
],
"failed": false,
"ovirt_tags": [
{
"description": "",
"href":
"/ovirt-engine/api/tags/4ebb9243-b133-40c9-b22e-03b3798415bf",
"id": "4ebb9243-b133-40c9-b22e-03b3798415bf",
"name": "veeam-tier3",
"parent": {
"href":
"/ovirt-engine/api/tags/----",
"id": "----"
}
},
{
"description": "",
"href":
"/ovirt-engine/api/tags/0fd7a16a-82ca-4d13-a9ab-9646a41c58e6",
"id": "0fd7a16a-82ca-4d13-a9ab-9646a41c58e6",
"name": "veeam-tier1",
"parent": {
"href":
"/ovirt-engine/api/tags/----",
"id": "----"
}
},
{
"description": "",
"href":
"/ovirt-engine/api/tags/4155338b-43f4-413c-bf41-4e46ee9472fa",
"id": "4155338b-43f4-413c-bf41-4e46ee9472fa",
"name": "veeam-tier2",
"parent": {
"href":
"/ovirt-engine/api/tags/----",
"id": "----"
}
}
]
}
}
I'm using fetch_nested and nested_attributes as I couldn't get 'follow' to
work.
Any ideas?
Thanks

Hi Robert, actually, what you are asking for should not be limited only to a sub-set of objects filtered by tag; we should allow batch operations on any sub- set of objects, filtered by tags, object name, object's cluster-description and/or cpu-consumption. bulk operations are available today, typically on actions that don't require a dialog interaction (other than confirmation dialog, maybe), e.g. Run VM, Stop VM, Maintenance/Activate Host, etc. per your example: granting user permissions on an object is done in the context of the Permissions sub-tab of that object. today, sub-tabs are displayed/associated only with a single item, hence sub-tab operations are performed in the context of that single item. one way of resolving what you are asking for is to change the sub-tabs to support displaying data and performing actions in the context of multiple items, rather than a single item. We can also try and find other solutions for this particular problem, however these solutions will require making the 'Add Permissions action available from another location/context in the GUI (e.g. the VMs main-tab, rather than / in addition to the Permissions sub-tab, in which the 'Add Permission' action is available today). please feel free to open an RFE on this issue: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/enter_bug.cgi?product=oVirt Thanks.

Robert -- Senior Software Engineer @ Parsons ___ Users mailing list Users@ovirt.org http://lists.ovirt.org/mailman/listinfo/users Just FYI if you need this functionality ASAP, you can use Java SDK [1] to get what you need. You will need a little Java program to loop through the VMs and invoke operations on it.

[Users] tags?
Hello, Can someone point me at a guide or explain to me the purpose of tags? I see that I can assign them to VMs and users, but don't grasp the purpose.
