Storage automation

[shut folio]

I’m interested in automating NetApp storage management using Python. Could someone guide me on the roadmap—what skills, tools, and steps I should focus on to get started and progress effectively?

I started from this: https://github.com/NetApp/ontap-rest-python ... Simply by trying to make these examples work, one can learn the steps required. Also, inspecting the examples' code flow, step by step in python debugger can reveal internal workings and make it all much easier in real development. Modern python debuggers also allow for variable modifications and method calls while stepping thru the code , thus allowing further exploration while in the running code context... Give it a shot and good luck!

The Labs on Demand are a really good place to start. If you have a NetApp Support account, you should have access to them:
