Notes
Note
- Ansible uses the 
cslibrary’s configuration method if credentials are not provided by the argumentsapi_url,api_key,api_secret. Configuration is read from several locations, in the following order. TheCLOUDSTACK_ENDPOINT,CLOUDSTACK_KEY,CLOUDSTACK_SECRETandCLOUDSTACK_METHOD.CLOUDSTACK_TIMEOUTenvironment variables. ACLOUDSTACK_CONFIGenvironment variable pointing to an.inifile. Acloudstack.inifile in the current working directory. A.cloudstack.inifile in the users home directory. Optionally multiple credentials and endpoints can be specified using ini sections incloudstack.ini. Use the argumentapi_regionto select the section name, default section iscloudstack. See https://github.com/exoscale/cs for more information. - A detailed guide about cloudstack modules can be found in the CloudStack Cloud Guide.
 - This module supports check mode.
