Applies to

  • Cloud Volumes ONTAP (CVO)
  • NetApp Console

Description

To create an additional data serving SVM in CVO you'll need to use our documented API. Using these APIs should automatically setup the needed ISCSI connections.

Procedure

  • Using NetApp connector's built-in API utility or a similar tool, perform the API call below. This will also create the lifs in the new SVM by default.
POST /azure/vsa/working-environments/{workingEnvironmentId}/svm (for single node)
 
POST /azure/ha/working-environments/{workingEnvironmentId}/svm (for HA)
 

These APIs are documented here.

  • Using curl command 
  1. Verify that you have free IP's in Azure CVO subnet
  2. Get a Bearer token using the KB: How to get "Access Token" or "Bearer Token" for NetApp Console quickly from browser
  3. Once you have the Bearer token, run the below API call to create a new SVM, which will take care of creating the data lif within the SVM as well.

For single node: 

curl --location 'http://<Connector-IP>:80/occm/api/azure/vsa/working-environments/<Working--environment-ID>/svm' --header 'Content-Type: application/json' --header 'Authorization: Bearer <token> --data-raw '{"svmName": "<new_svm_name>", "svmPassword": "<svm_mgmt_password", "mgmtLif": "<true/false>", "rootVolumeAggregate": "<aggregate>"}'

For HA
curl --location 'http://<Connector-IP>:80/occm/api/azure/ha/working-environments/<Working--environment-ID>/svm' --header 'Content-Type: application/json' --header 'Authorization: Bearer <token> --data-raw '{"svmName": "<new_svm_name>", "svmPassword": "<svm_mgmt_password", "mgmtLif": "<true/false>", "rootVolumeAggregate": "<aggregate>"}'
