Hello, i see the list volumes documenation, is there a way to only list volumes that start with a certain patern? an example would be only list volumes that start with DEV_

thank you in advance.

You can pass patterns along as a parameter using the na_ontap_rest_info module:

#

- name: Gather volumes starting with DEV_ netapp.ontap.na_ontap_rest_info: <<: *login gather_subset: - storage/volumes parameters: name: "DEV_*" is_svm_root: false fields: - name register: volumes

That was pointed at a svm. I pointed at the cluster and got this error:

What version of ONTAP are you using?

9.13.1

Could you try the following for me

curl --user <username>:<password> -kX GET https://<hostip>/api/cluster -H 'accept: application/hal+json'

You should get an Response back like the one below

carchi@carchi-mac-1 ~ $ curl --user <username>:<password> -kX GET https://<hostip>/api/cluster -H 'accept: application/hal+json'
{
"name": "ontap_cluster_1",

OK so it look like the rest api on your system isn't enable or responding. By default it should be enable. you may want to reach out #1063542514780475493 and see how to renable it

I don't believe the getting started guide with Rest api https://docs.netapp.com/us-en/ontap-automation/get-started/ontap_automation_options.html talks about how to renable it but you way want to double check.

Understand the ONTAP automation options

Beginning with ONTAP 9.6, ONTAP includes an expansive REST API that provides the foundation for automating the deployment and administration of your storage ...

i made progress!

#

but im getting Error: Fields: [name], only one subset will be allowed

split torrent Aug 2, 2023, 1:51 PM

#

Was able to get the curl command working via help from the api forum, now getting this error

Error useing REST for version, error HTTPSConnectionPool (host= 'ip', port=443) Max retries exceeded with url: /api/cluster?fields=version (caused by Connecttimeouterror (<urllib3.connection.verifiedHTTPSConnection object at 1x7fe875eafa90>, connection to ip timed out (connect timeout = 60) error using REST cor version, status_code: none

whole plinth Aug 3, 2023, 4:42 PM

#

So it looks like the REST API was waiting 60 second and hit the connection timeout. Not sure what causing your system to be really slow (or getting info on a lot of results) to hit the timeout limit

#

is there a way to extend that?

Making Progress, need to figure out how just to pull the name, right now its pulling more:

hosts: localhost
gather_facts: true
become: false

collections:
- netapp.ontap
- netapp.Um_Info
tasks:
- name: Gather Volumes starting with
  netapp.ontap.na_ontap_rest_info:
  hostname: ip
  username: "user"
  password: "password"
  validate_certs: "false"
  https: "true"
  gather_subset:
  - volume_info
    parameters:
    name: "tkg_*"
    fields:
  - 'name'
    register: volumes
- name: print volume list
  debug:
  msg: "{{ volumes }}"

OUTPUT:

            {
                "_links": {
                    "self": {
                        "href": "/api/storage/volumes/04c3f560-3626-11ee-9939-d039ea3ac245"
                    }
                },
                "name": "tkg_bravo_lab3_pvc_c2e22858_b7fe_4aa4_bdfb_38ee37ab84a9",
                "uuid": "04c3f560-3626-11ee-9939-d039ea3ac245"
            },

#

uuid, and _links is always returned by the rest api

If you are looking to just get the name you'll need to do something similar to what i have in this playbook that returning the SVM names.

split torrent Aug 14, 2023, 3:45 PM

#

hmmmmm, that screen shot didnt work

#

how would i pull the name of the volume out as a variable then to send to use else where?

#

interesting, screen shot worked on different machine. ill give that a try now, thank you

#

would i have to change ontap_info.svm_svms_records to something else?

whole plinth Aug 14, 2023, 3:56 PM

#

Yes if you just print out {{ result }} you'll see the Json structure.

Volume i believe is storage_volume

split torrent Aug 14, 2023, 4:08 PM

#

that didnt seem to work

#

here is a print of result

#

task path: /runner/project/volume_list.yml:26
ok: [localhost] => {
"msg": {
"changed": false,
"failed": false,
"ontap_info": {

"links": {
"self": {
"href": "/api/storage/volumes?max_records=1024&fields=name&name=tkg%2A"
}
},
"num_records": 181,
"records": [

#

i dont see it listed

whole plinth Aug 14, 2023, 4:08 PM

#

you need to add use_python_keys to your playbook

split torrent Aug 14, 2023, 4:08 PM

#

oh......other then the text line is there anything else i need?

whole plinth Aug 14, 2023, 4:09 PM

#

then it would be results.ontap_info.storage_volumes.records

split torrent Aug 14, 2023, 4:11 PM

#

still getting this:

"msg": "'dict object' has no attribute 'storage_volume'"

volumes

split torrent Aug 14, 2023, 4:15 PM

"msg": "tkg_itg_pvc_a0ed24d2_8f30_4000_b8a1_1f929db79f1a"

#

so is that what i want?

whole plinth Aug 14, 2023, 4:16 PM

#

That the name you had here #1129076370652274759 message so yes

split torrent Aug 14, 2023, 4:17 PM

#

true. I guess i shold i have specified a little more. i need to get all the volumes in a variable so i use it in another task to register it in our backup solution

whole plinth Aug 14, 2023, 4:18 PM

#

You can use that loop, in other tasks to loop through each name to do something

split torrent Aug 14, 2023, 4:23 PM

#

Like in another task in the same playbook find a way to just pull the name I want out

whole plinth Aug 14, 2023, 4:25 PM

#

Yes you would use the a loop with the registered variable.

Ansible has a detailed page here on how loops work with registarted variables https://docs.ansible.com/ansible/latest/playbook_guide/playbooks_loops.html

split torrent Aug 14, 2023, 5:38 PM

#

Thank you!

#

this what you thinking?
Registering variables with a loop
You can register the output of a loop as a variable. For example

name: Register loop output as a variable
ansible.builtin.shell: "echo {{ item }}"
loop:
- "one"
- "two"
  register: echo
