This resource is deprecated and will be removed in the next major version. Use ibm.PiNetworkInterface resource instead.

Attaches a network port to a Power Systems Virtual Server instance. For more information, see getting started with IBM Power Systems Virtual Servers.

Example Usage

In the following example, you can create an network_port_attach resource:

import * as pulumi from "@pulumi/pulumi";
import * as ibm from "@pulumi/ibm";

const test_network_port_attach = new ibm.PiNetworkPortAttach("test-network-port-attach", {
    piCloudInstanceId: "<value of the cloud_instance_id>",
    piInstanceId: "<pvm instance id>",
    piNetworkName: "<network name>",
    piNetworkPortDescription: "<description>",
});
Copy
import pulumi
import pulumi_ibm as ibm

test_network_port_attach = ibm.PiNetworkPortAttach("test-network-port-attach",
    pi_cloud_instance_id="<value of the cloud_instance_id>",
    pi_instance_id="<pvm instance id>",
    pi_network_name="<network name>",
    pi_network_port_description="<description>")
