vcf-sddc-manage

A task to manage the SDDC (VCF) bootstrap via Cloud Builder OVA.

This task manages the bootstrap of a VMware vSphere Cloud Foundation cluster build via the OVA deployed Cloud Builder appliance. You must specify the VCF SDDC Bringup JSON via the Param named vcf/sddc-bringup.

The Cloud Builder VM host URL, username, and password must exist in the JSON data from the Param ova/param-json. The values are derived from the Propertymapping data, which must conform to the JSON template structure used for the Cloud Builder OVA appliance deployment.

The ova-deploy.json.tmpl template must correctly render to the /tmp/ova-deploy.json file for this task to run successfully. It specifies the OVA deployment data, which is parsed to get the VCF Cloud Builder IP/hostname and User/Password credentials to initiate the bringup process. The template is dynamically constructed from either the Param ova/param-json defined JSON.
