CreateEnvironmentRequest
¶
Source code in docs_src/capo_evs/types/create_environment_request.py
client_token
instance-attribute
¶
client_token: NotRequired[ClientToken]
This parameter is not used in Amazon EVS currently. If you supply input for this parameter, it will have no effect.
A unique, case-sensitive identifier that you provide to ensure the idempotency of the environment creation request. If you do not specify a client token, a randomly generated token is used for the request to ensure idempotency.
connectivity_info
instance-attribute
¶
connectivity_info: NotRequired[ConnectivityInfo]
The connectivity configuration for the environment. Amazon EVS requires that you specify two route server peer IDs. During environment creation, the route server endpoints peer with the NSX edges over the NSX uplink subnet, providing BGP-based dynamic routing for overlay networks.
Not supported when vcfVersion is SELF_DEPLOYED.
environment_name
instance-attribute
¶
environment_name: NotRequired[EnvironmentName]
The name to give to your environment. The name can contain only alphanumeric characters (case-sensitive), hyphens, and underscores. It must start with an alphanumeric character, and can't be longer than 100 characters. The name must be unique within the Amazon Web Services Region and Amazon Web Services account that you're creating the environment in.
hosts
instance-attribute
¶
hosts: NotRequired[HostInfoForCreateList]
The ESX hosts to add to the environment. For each host, provide the desired hostname, EC2 SSH keypair name, and EC2 instance type. Optionally, provide a partition or cluster placement group, or use Amazon EC2 Dedicated Hosts.
Not supported when vcfVersion is SELF_DEPLOYED. In that case, you can add hosts using CreateEnvironmentHost after the environment is created.
initial_vlans
instance-attribute
¶
initial_vlans: InitialVlans
The initial VLAN subnets for the Amazon EVS environment.
For each Amazon EVS VLAN subnet, you must specify a non-overlapping CIDR block. Amazon EVS VLAN subnets have a minimum CIDR block size of /28 and a maximum size of /24.
kms_key_id
instance-attribute
¶
kms_key_id: NotRequired[str]
A unique ID for the customer-managed KMS key that is used to encrypt the VCF credential pairs for SDDC Manager, NSX Manager, and vCenter appliances. These credentials are stored in Amazon Web Services Secrets Manager.
license_info
instance-attribute
¶
license_info: NotRequired[LicenseInfoList]
The license information that Amazon EVS requires to create an environment. Amazon EVS requires two license keys: a VCF solution key and a vSAN license key. The VCF solution key must meet minimum core requirements, and the vSAN license key must meet minimum capacity requirements for your selected instance type.
For information about minimum license requirements, see the VCF subscriptions section in the Amazon EVS User Guide.
VCF licenses can be used for only one Amazon EVS environment. Amazon EVS does not support reuse of VCF licenses for multiple environments.
VCF license information can be retrieved from the Broadcom portal.
Not supported when vcfVersion is SELF_DEPLOYED.
service_access_security_groups
instance-attribute
¶
service_access_security_groups: NotRequired[ServiceAccessSecurityGroups]
The security group that controls communication between the Amazon EVS control plane and VPC. The default security group is used if a custom security group isn't specified.
The security group should allow access to the following.
-
TCP/UDP access to the DNS servers
-
HTTPS/SSH access to the host management VLAN subnet
-
HTTPS/SSH access to the Management VM VLAN subnet
You should avoid modifying the security group rules after deployment, as this can break the persistent connection between the Amazon EVS control plane and VPC. This can cause future environment actions like adding or removing hosts to fail.
service_access_subnet_id
instance-attribute
¶
service_access_subnet_id: SubnetId
The subnet that is used to establish connectivity between the Amazon EVS control plane and VPC. The Amazon EVS control plane uses this subnet to interface with your environment. This includes validating DNS records and enabling Amazon EVS Connectors.
site_id
instance-attribute
¶
site_id: NotRequired[str]
The Broadcom Site ID that is allocated to you as part of your electronic software delivery. This ID allows customer access to the Broadcom portal, and is provided to you by Broadcom at the close of your software contract or contract renewal. Amazon EVS uses the Broadcom Site ID that you provide to meet Broadcom VCF license usage reporting requirements for Amazon EVS.
Not supported when vcfVersion is SELF_DEPLOYED.
tags
instance-attribute
¶
tags: NotRequired[RequestTagMap]
Metadata that assists with categorization and organization. Each tag consists of a key and an optional value. You define both. Tags don't propagate to any other cluster or Amazon Web Services resources.
terms_accepted
instance-attribute
¶
terms_accepted: bool
Confirmation that the customer has purchased and will continue to maintain the required number of VCF software licenses to cover all physical processor cores in the Amazon EVS environment. Information about your VCF software in Amazon EVS will be shared with Broadcom to verify license compliance. Amazon EVS does not validate license keys. To validate license keys, visit the Broadcom support portal.
vcf_hostnames
instance-attribute
¶
vcf_hostnames: NotRequired[VcfHostnames]
The DNS hostnames for the virtual machines that host the VCF management appliances. Provide hostnames for vCenter, NSX Manager, SDDC Manager, and Cloud Builder.
Not supported when vcfVersion is SELF_DEPLOYED.
vcf_version
instance-attribute
¶
vcf_version: VcfVersion
The VCF version to use for the environment.
-
SELF_DEPLOYED: You install VCF yourself. ThelicenseInfo,hosts,vcfHostnames,siteId, andconnectivityInfoparameters are not supported. -
Any other valid value: Amazon EVS installs and configures VCF for you in the version you specify.
vpc_id
instance-attribute
¶
vpc_id: VpcId
A unique ID for the VPC that the environment is deployed inside.
Amazon EVS requires that all VPC subnets exist in a single Availability Zone in a Region where the service is available.
The VPC that you specify must have a valid DHCP option set with domain name, at least two DNS servers, and an NTP server. These settings are used to configure your VCF appliances and hosts. The VPC cannot be used with any other deployed Amazon EVS environment. Amazon EVS does not provide multi-VPC support for environments at this time.
Amazon EVS does not support the following Amazon Web Services networking options for NSX overlay connectivity: cross-Region VPC peering, Amazon S3 gateway endpoints, or Amazon Web Services Direct Connect virtual private gateway associations.
Ensure that you specify a VPC that is adequately sized to accommodate the Amazon EVS subnets.
