+module: ovh_ip_loadbalancing_backend
+short_description: Manage OVH IP LoadBalancing backends
+description:
+    - Manage OVH (French European hosting provider) LoadBalancing IP backends
+version_added: "1.9"
+author: Pascal HERAUD @pascalheraud
+notes:
+    - Uses the python OVH Api U(https://github.com/ovh/python-ovh). You have to create an application (a key and secret) with a consummer key as described into U(https://eu.api.ovh.com/g934.first_step_with_api)
