[ovirt-users] ansible and list of vms

[Ondra Machacek]

Not sure I understand. You can use Ansible module to list VMs, you
can use ovirt_vms _facts[1] module.

For example to get only stopped VMs, you can use following:

- name: Get stopped VMs
  ovirt_vms_facts:
    auth:
      url: https://ovirt.example.com/ovirt-engine/api
      username: admin at internal
      password: password
      ca_file: /etc/pki/ovirt-engine/ca.pem
    pattern: "status = down"
