NAME

ontap_lsmplugin -- LibstorageMgmt ONTAP Plugin

DESCRIPTION

LibstorageMgmt ontap plugin allows user to manage NetApp ONTAP storage arrays. The 'ontap_lsmplugin' executable file is for libStorageMgmt daemon to execute when client specifies ontap plugin in the URI

This plugin requires NetApp ONTAP storage array to enable these options:


options httpd.enable on
options httpd.admin.enable on

These options are required for HTTPS connection:


options httpd.admin.ssl.enable on
options tls.enable on

URI

To use this plugin, users should set their URI to this format:



    # HTTP connection


    ontap://<username>@<ontap_filer>


    # HTTPS connection


    ontap+ssl://<username>@<ontap_filer>


    # HTTPS connection with certificate file


    ontap+ssl://<username>@<ontap_filer>?ca_cert_file=<ca_cert_file_path>

The username is the user account with administration privilege.

The ontap_filer_ip is the NetApp ONTAP filer IP address or DNS name.

URI parameters

This URI parameter is supported by this plugin:

By default, SSL connection does not verify hostname and certification. If this URI parameter is defined, all SSL verifications will be performed.

This parameter define the CA certification file path for SSL/TLS verification. If this URI parameter is defined, all SSL/TLS verifications will be performed no matter ssl_verify=yes is defined or not.

Supported Hardware

NetApp ONTAP 8.x is supported. Detailed support status can be queried via:


* lsm.Client.capabilities() (Python API)
* lsm_capabilities() (C API)
* lsmcli capabilities (lsmcli command line).
