  • python >= 2.7.5

Parameters

Parameter Choices/Defaults Comments
baseuri
string / required
IP address of the target out-of-band controller. For example- <ipaddress>:<port>.
block_size_bytes
integer
Block size in bytes.Only applicable when state is present.
capacity_bytes
string
Volume size in bytes.
Only applicable when state is present.
command
string
    Choices:
  • initialize
initialize initializes an existing storage volume for a specified volume_id.
controller_id
string
Fully Qualified Device Descriptor (FQDD) of the storage controller.
For example- RAID.Slot.1-1.
This option is mandatory when state is present while creating a volume.
drives
list / elements=string
FQDD of the Physical disks.
For example- Disk.Bay.0:Enclosure.Internal.0-1:RAID.Slot.1-1.
Only applicable when state is present when creating a new volume.
encrypted
boolean
    Choices:
  • no
  • yes
Indicates whether volume is currently utilizing encryption or not.
Only applicable when state is present.
encryption_types
string
    Choices:
  • NativeDriveEncryption
  • ControllerAssisted
  • SoftwareAssisted
The following encryption types can be selected.
ControllerAssisted The volume is encrypted by the storage controller entity.
NativeDriveEncryption The volume utilizes the native drive encryption capabilities of the drive hardware.
SoftwareAssisted The volume is encrypted by the software running on the system or the operating system.
Only applicable when state is present.
initialize_type
string
    Choices:
  • Fast
  • Slow
Initialization type of existing volume.
Only applicable when command is initialize.
name
string
Name of the volume to be created.
Only applicable when state is present.
oem
dictionary
Includes OEM extended payloads.
Only applicable when state is present.
optimum_io_size_bytes
integer
Stripe size value must be in multiples of 64 * 1024.
Only applicable when state is present.
password
string / required
Password of the target out-of-band controller.
state
string
    Choices:
  • present
  • absent
present creates a storage volume for the specified I (controller_id), or modifies the storage volume for the specified I (volume_id). "Note: Modification of an existing volume properties depends on drive and controller capabilities".
absent deletes the volume for the specified volume_id.
username
string / required
Username of the target out-of-band controller.
volume_id
string
FQDD of existing volume.
For example- Disk.Virtual.4:RAID.Slot.1-1.
This option is mandatory in the following scenarios,
state is present, when updating a volume.
state is absent, when deleting a volume.
command is initialize, when initializing a volume.
volume_type
string
    Choices:
  • NonRedundant
  • Mirrored
  • StripedWithParity
  • SpannedMirrors
  • SpannedStripesWithParity
One of the following volume types must be selected to create a volume.
Mirrored The volume is a mirrored device.
NonRedundant The volume is a non-redundant storage device.
SpannedMirrors The volume is a spanned set of mirrored devices.
SpannedStripesWithParity The volume is a spanned set of devices which uses parity to retain redundant information.
StripedWithParity The volume is a device which uses parity to retain redundant information.
