Ansible 2 Cloud Automation Cookbook

How to do it...

Let us create a load balancer and attach an instance to it:

- name: create load balancer and attach to instance  gce_lb:    name: loadbalancer1    region: us-west1    members: ["{{ zone }}/app"]    httphealthcheck_name: hc    httphealthcheck_port: 80    httphealthcheck_path: "/"    service_account_email: "{{ service_account_email }}"    project_id: "{{ project_id }}"    credentials_file: "{{ credentials_file }}"  tags:  - recipe7

For creating a load balancer, we need to supply a comma separated list of instances. We also need to provide health check parameters including a name, a port and the path on which a GET request can be sent.
