community.general.proxmox module - adding disks - better examples

[riaanp78]

Summary

I was playing with the community.general.proxmox module and i was able to clone my template perfect and update the cloud init details without hassle. But i am struggling to add new disks to an existing VM. Is it something I am doing wrong or is the support limited for adding?

Code example i am using / playing with:

`

• name: Update VMs community.general.proxmox_kvm: api_host: "{{ api_host }}" api_user: "{{ api_user }}" api_password: "{{ api_password }}" cores: "{{ item.cores }}" sockets: "{{ item.sockets }}" memory: "{{ item.memory }}" update: yes ciuser: mylinuxuser cipassword: supersecret vmid: "{{ item.vmid }}" node: "{{ node }}" name: "{{ item.name }}" ipconfig: ipconfig0: "ip={{ item.ipaddress}},gw={{ item.gw }}" scsi: scsi0: "datastore:10,format=qcow2"

`

Not complaining but better examples for more use cases would be nice. Most people do this:

1. clone VM template
2. adjust cloned VM settings e.g. IP/GW/user etc
3. add additional disks to template
4. start cloned VM template

Just want to know if i am doing it wrong with my update attempt?

good day, I am going to assume the short answer is no. no ansible does not have support for this.

Never mind i found this mode hidden in the document index: https://docs.ansible.com/ansible/latest/collections/community/general/proxmox_disk_module.html#ansible-collections-community-general-proxmox-disk-module
