Synopsis

  • This module allows the user to create, update and delete a BootVolumeBackup resource in Oracle Cloud Infrastructure

  • For state=present, creates a new boot volume backup of the specified boot volume. For general information about boot volume backups, see Overview of Boot Volume Backups

  • When the request is received, the backup object is in a REQUEST_RECEIVED state. When the data is imaged, it goes into a CREATING state. After the backup is fully uploaded to the cloud, it goes into an AVAILABLE state.

  • This resource has the following action operations in the oracle.oci.oci_blockstorage_boot_volume_backup_actions module: change_compartment, copy.

Requirements

The below requirements are needed on the host that executes this module.

Parameters

Parameter Choices/Defaults Comments
api_user

api_user_key_file
string
Full path and filename of the private key (in PEM format). If not set, then the value of the OCI_USER_KEY_FILE variable, if any, is used. This option is required if the private key is not specified through a configuration file (See config_file_location). If the key is encrypted with a pass-phrase, the api_user_key_pass_phrase option must also be provided.
api_user_key_pass_phrase
string
Passphrase used by the key referenced in api_user_key_file, if it is encrypted. If not set, then the value of the OCI_USER_KEY_PASS_PHRASE variable, if any, is used. This option is required if the key passphrase is not specified through a configuration file (See config_file_location).
