Provider Types
The provider types available with earlier appliances have changed with this release. This is what gets specified with the type attribute when creating a new provider:
POST /api/providers
{
"name" : "vCenter 5",
"type" : "ManageIQ::Providers::Vmware::InfraManager",
"hostname" : "my_vcenter_50",
...
}
The following table lists the type from previous appliance releases (v2.0.0 of the REST API), and their mapping to the new v2.1.0 types:
| v2.0.0 Provider Type | v2.1.0 Provider Type |
|---|---|
| EmsAmazon | ManageIQ::Providers::Amazon::CloudManager |
| ManageIQ::Providers::Atomic::ContainerManager (new) | |
| ManageIQ::Providers::Azure::CloudManager (new) | |
| EmsKubernetes | ManageIQ::Providers::Kubernetes::ContainerManager |
| EmsMicrosoft | ManageIQ::Providers::Microsoft::InfraManager |
| ManageIQ::Providers::Openshift::ContainerManager (new) | |
| EmsOpenstackInfra | ManageIQ::Providers::Openstack::InfraManager |
| EmsOpenstack | ManageIQ::Providers::Openstack::CloudManager |
| EmsRedhat | ManageIQ::Providers::Redhat::InfraManager |
| EmsVmware | ManageIQ::Providers::Vmware::InfraManager |
And when provider-class is set to provider, the following mapping table applies:
| v2.0.0 Provider Type | v2.1.0 Provider Type |
|---|---|
| ProviderForeman | ManageIQ::Providers::Foreman::Provider |
| ProviderOpenstack | ManageIQ::Providers::Openstack::Provider |
