xcsh_virtual_k8s (Resource)

Manages virtual_k8s will create the object in the storage backend for namespace metadata.namespace. in F5 Distributed Cloud.

~> Note Please refer to Virtual K8S API docs to learn more.

# VirtualK8S Resource Example
# Manages virtual_k8s will create the object in the storage backend for namespace metadata.namespace.
terraform {
required_version = ">= 1.0"
required_providers {
xcsh = {
source = "f5-sales-demo/xcsh"
version = ">= 0.1.0"
}
}
}
# Basic VirtualK8S configuration
resource "xcsh_virtual_k8s" "example" {
name = "example-virtual-k8s"
namespace = "staging"
}

-> Syntax Rule: This provider uses OneOf groups for mutually exclusive options. Fields documented as “Optional Block” use empty block syntax field_name {}, never field_name = true. Boolean attributes (like add_hsts, http_redirect) use = true/false as normal.

🔶 High Risk Operations — Some operations on this resource have high danger level. Destructive operations may require confirmation.

Name of the Virtual K8S. Must be unique within the namespace

namespace - Required String
Namespace where the Virtual K8S will be created

annotations - Optional Map
Annotations is an unstructured key value map stored with a resource that may be set by external tools to store and retrieve arbitrary metadata

description - Optional String

tenant - Optional String
When a configuration object(e.g. Virtual_host) refers to another(e.g route) then tenant will hold the referred object’s(e.g. Route’s) tenant

uid - Optional String
When a configuration object(e.g. Virtual_host) refers to another(e.g route) then uid will hold the referred object’s(e.g. Route’s) uid
