Problem:
Using the Ansible collection theforeman.foreman (current v2.2) it’s not possible to create a VM via Foreman (3.0.0-rc2) using Proxmox (v6.4).
The error message is: “vmid is required for this operation”.
There is no vmid which could be passed as parameter, so the plugin foreman-fog-proxmox (v 0.14) might not get the next free vmid from Proxmox.
There is a quite old bug similar to this: https://github.com/theforeman/foreman_fog_proxmox/issues/83
It looks like the foreman-fog-proxmox does not get the next free vmid from Proxmox.
Is this a known issue?
Kind regards,
Anhu
