Module `netapp_ontap.resources.consistency_group`

Overview

A consistency group is a group of volumes that supports capabilities such as creating a snapshot of all of its member volumes at the same point-in-time with a write-fence, thus ensuring a consistent image of the volumes at that time.
Applications with datasets scoped to a single volume can have its contents saved to a Snapshot copy, replicated, or cloned in a crash-consistent manner implicitly with corresponding native ONTAP volume-granular operations. Applications with datasets spanning a group of multiple volumes must have such operations performed on the group. Typically, by first fencing writes to all the volumes in the group, flushing any writes pending in queues, executing the intended operation, that is, take Snapshot copy of every volume in the group and when that is complete, unfence and resume writes. A consistency group is the conventional mechanism for providing such group semantics.

Consistency group APIs

The following APIs are used to perform operations related to consistency groups:

GET /api/application/consistency-groups
POST /api/application/consistency-groups
GET /api/application/consistency-groups/{uuid}
PATCH /api/application/consistency-groups/{uuid}
DELETE /api/application/consistency-groups/{uuid}

Deleting a consistency group

Deletes a consistency group, where all storage originally associated with that consistency group remains in place.

from netapp_ontap import HostConnection
from netapp_ontap.resources import ConsistencyGroup

with HostConnection(
    "netapp-cluster.netapp.com", username="admin", password="netapp1!", verify=False
):
    resource = ConsistencyGroup(uuid="6f48d798-0a7f-11ec-a449-005056bbcf9f")
    resource.delete()

Classes

class ConsistencyGroup (*args, **kwargs)

Allows interaction with ConsistencyGroup objects on the host

Initialize the instance of the resource.

Any keyword arguments are set on the instance as properties. For example, if the class was named 'MyResource', then this statement would be true:

MyResource(name='foo').name == 'foo'

Args

*args: Each positional argument represents a parent key as used in the URL of the object. That is, each value will be used to fill in a segment of the URL which refers to some parent object. The order of these arguments must match the order they are specified in the URL, from left to right.
**kwargs: each entry will have its key set as an attribute name on the instance and its value will be the value of that attribute.

Ancestors

Resource

Static methods

def count_collection(*args, connection: HostConnection = None, **kwargs) -> int

Fetch a count of all objects of this type from the host.

This calls GET on the object to determine the number of records. It is more efficient than calling get_collection() because it will not construct any objects. Query parameters can be passed in as kwargs to determine a count of objects that match some filtered criteria.

Args

*args: Each entry represents a parent key which is used to build the path to the child object. If the URL definition were /api/foos/{foo.name}/bars, then to get the count of bars for a particular foo, the foo.name value should be passed.
connection: The HostConnection object to use for this API call. If unset, tries to use the connection which is set globally for the library or from the current context.
**kwargs: Any key/value pairs passed will be sent as query parameters to the host. These query parameters can affect the count. A return_records query param will be ignored.

Returns

On success, returns an integer count of the objects of this type. On failure, returns -1.

Raises

NetAppRestError: If the API call returned a status code >= 400, or if there is no connection available to use either passed in or on the library.

def delete_collection(*args, records: Iterable[_ForwardRef('ConsistencyGroup')] = None, body: Union[Resource, dict] = None, poll: bool = True, poll_interval: Union[int, NoneType] = None, poll_timeout: Union[int, NoneType] = None, connection: HostConnection = None, **kwargs) -> NetAppResponse

Deletes a consistency group.
Note this will not delete any associated volumes or LUNs. To remove those elements, you can use the appropriate object endpoint.

There are no ONTAP commands for managing consistency groups.

DOC /application/consistency-groups

Delete all objects in a collection which match the given query.

All records on the host which match the query will be deleted.

Args

*args: Each entry represents a parent key which is used to build the path to the child object. If the URL definition were /api/foos/{foo.name}/bars, then to delete the collection of bars for a particular foo, the foo.name value should be passed.
records: Can be provided in place of a query. If so, this list of objects will be deleted from the host.
body: The body of the delete request. This could be a Resource instance or a dictionary object.
poll: If set to True, the call will not return until the asynchronous job on the host has completed. Has no effect if the host did not return a job response.
poll_interval: If the operation returns a job, this specifies how often to query the job for updates.
poll_timeout: If the operation returns a job, this specifies how long to continue monitoring the job's status for completion.
connection: The HostConnection object to use for this API call. If unset, tries to use the connection which is set globally for the library or from the current context.
**kwargs: Any key/value pairs passed will be sent as query parameters to the host. Only resources matching this query will be deleted.

Returns

A NetAppResponse object containing the details of the HTTP response.

Raises

NetAppRestError: If the API call returned a status code >= 400

def find(*args, connection: HostConnection = None, **kwargs) -> Resource

Retrieve details of a collection or a specific consistency group.

Notes

When volume granular properties, such as, the storage SLC, Fabric Pool tiering are not the same for all the existing volumes of a consistency group, the corresponding property is not reported at consistency group granularity. It is only reported if all the volumes of the consistency group have the same value for that property.
If this consistency group instance is part of a replication relationship, the "replicated" parameter will be true. Otherwise, it is false. Also, the "replicated" parameter will not be present in the output for Nested-consistency groups, it is included only for single and top-level consistency groups. If this consistency group instance is the source of a replication relationship, the "replication_source" parameter will be true. Otherwise, it is false.

Expensive properties

There is an added cost to retrieving values for these properties. They are not included by default in GET results and must be explicitly requested using the fields query parameter. See DOC Requesting specific fields to learn more. * volumes * luns * namespaces

DOC /application/consistency-groups

Find an instance of an object on the host given a query.

The host will be queried with the provided key/value pairs to find a matching resource. If 0 are found, None will be returned. If more than 1 is found, an error will be raised or returned. If there is exactly 1 matching record, then it will be returned.

Args

*args: Each entry represents a parent key which is used to build the path to the child object. If the URL definition were /api/foos/{foo.name}/bars, then to find a bar for a particular foo, the foo.name value should be passed.
connection: The HostConnection object to use for this API call. If unset, tries to use the connection which is set globally for the library or from the current context.
**kwargs: Any key/value pairs passed will be sent as query parameters to the host.

Returns

A Resource object containing the details of the object or None if no matches were found.

Raises

NetAppRestError: If the API call returned more than 1 matching resource.

def get_collection(*args, connection: HostConnection = None, max_records: int = None, **kwargs) -> Iterable[Resource]

Retrieve details of a collection or a specific consistency group.

Notes

Expensive properties

Learn more

DOC /application/consistency-groups

Fetch a list of all objects of this type from the host.

This is a lazy fetch, making API calls only as necessary when the result of this call is iterated over. For instance, if max_records is set to 5, then iterating over the collection causes an API call to be sent to the server once for every 5 records. If the client stops iterating before getting to the 6th record, then no additional API calls are made.

Args

*args: Each entry represents a parent key which is used to build the path to the child object. If the URL definition were /api/foos/{foo.name}/bars, then to get the collection of bars for a particular foo, the foo.name value should be passed.
connection: The HostConnection object to use for this API call. If unset, tries to use the connection which is set globally for the library or from the current context.
max_records: The maximum number of records to return per call
**kwargs: Any key/value pairs passed will be sent as query parameters to the host.

Returns

A list of Resource objects

Raises

NetAppRestError: If there is no connection available to use either passed in or on the library. This would be not be raised when get_collection() is called, but rather when the result is iterated.

def patch_collection(body: dict, *args, records: Iterable[_ForwardRef('ConsistencyGroup')] = None, poll: bool = True, poll_interval: Union[int, NoneType] = None, poll_timeout: Union[int, NoneType] = None, connection: HostConnection = None, **kwargs) -> NetAppResponse

Updates a consistency group.
Note that this operation will never delete storage elements. You can specify only elements that should be added to the consistency group regardless of existing storage objects.

N/A. There are no ONTAP commands for managing consistency groups.

Examples:

Adding namespaces to an existing volume in an existing consistency group

To add two NVMe Namespaces to an existing volume in an existing consistency group, create a new subsystem and bind the new namespaces to it.

Send this collection of objects to the host as a creation request.

Args

records: A list of Resource objects to send to the server to be created.
*args: Each entry represents a parent key which is used to build the path to the child object. If the URL definition were /api/foos/{foo.name}/bars, then to create a bar for a particular foo, the foo.name value should be passed.
hydrate: If set to True, after the response is received from the call, a a GET call will be made to refresh all fields of each object. When hydrate is set to True, poll must also be set to True.
poll: If set to True, the call will not return until the asynchronous job on the host has completed. Has no effect if the host did not return a job response.
poll_interval: If the operation returns a job, this specifies how often to query the job for updates.
poll_timeout: If the operation returns a job, this specifies how long to continue monitoring the job's status for completion.
connection: The HostConnection object to use for this API call. If unset, tries to use the connection which is set globally for the library or from the current context.
**kwargs: Any key/value pairs passed will be sent as query parameters to the host. Only resources matching this query will be patched.

Returns

A list of Resource objects matching the provided
type which have been created by the host and returned. This is _not_
the same list that was provided, so to continue using the object, you

should save this list. If poll is set to False, then a NetAppResponse object is returned instead.

Raises

NetAppRestError: If the API call returned a status code >= 400

Methods

def delete(self, body: Union[Resource, dict] = None, poll: bool = True, poll_interval: Union[int, NoneType] = None, poll_timeout: Union[int, NoneType] = None, **kwargs) -> NetAppResponse

Deletes a consistency group.
Note this will not delete any associated volumes or LUNs. To remove those elements, you can use the appropriate object endpoint.

There are no ONTAP commands for managing consistency groups.

Send a deletion request to the host for this object.

Args

body: The body of the delete request. This could be a Resource instance or a dictionary object.
poll: If set to True, the call will not return until the asynchronous job on the host has completed. Has no effect if the host did not return a job response.
poll_interval: If the operation returns a job, this specifies how often to query the job for updates.
poll_timeout: If the operation returns a job, this specifies how long to continue monitoring the job's status for completion.
**kwargs: Any key/value pairs passed will be sent as query parameters to the host.

Returns

A NetAppResponse object containing the details of the HTTP response.

Raises

NetAppRestError: If the API call returned a status code >= 400

def get(self, **kwargs) -> NetAppResponse

Retrieves a single consistency group.

Send the difference in the object's state to the host as a modification request.

Calculates the difference in the object's state since the last time we interacted with the host and sends this in the request body.

Args

hydrate: If set to True, after the response is received from the call, a a GET call will be made to refresh all fields of the object.
poll: If set to True, the call will not return until the asynchronous job on the host has completed. Has no effect if the host did not return a job response.
poll_interval: If the operation returns a job, this specifies how often to query the job for updates.
poll_timeout: If the operation returns a job, this specifies how long to continue monitoring the job's status for completion.
**kwargs: Any key/value pairs passed will normally be sent as query parameters to the host. If any of these pairs are parameters that are sent as formdata then only parameters of that type will be accepted and all others will be discarded.

Returns

A NetAppResponse object containing the details of the HTTP response.

Raises

NetAppRestError: If the API call returned a status code >= 400

Class variables

consistency_groups GET POST: A consistency group is a mutually exclusive aggregation of volumes or other consistency groups. A consistency group can only be associated with one direct parent consistency group.
links GET: The links field of the consistency_group.
luns GET POST PATCH: The LUNs array can be used to create or modify LUNs in a consistency group on a new or existing volume that is a member of the consistency group. LUNs are considered members of a consistency group if they are located on a volume that is a member of the consistency group.
name GET POST: Name of the consistency group. The consistency group name must be unique within an SVM.
If not provided and the consistency group contains only one volume, the name will be generated based on the volume name. If the consistency group contains more than one volume, the name is required.
namespaces PATCH: An NVMe namespace is a collection of addressable logical blocks presented to hosts connected to the SVM using the NVMe over Fabrics protocol. In ONTAP, an NVMe namespace is located within a volume. Optionally, it can be located within a qtree in a volume.
An NVMe namespace is created to a specified size using thin or thick provisioning as determined by the volume on which it is created. NVMe namespaces support being cloned. An NVMe namespace cannot be renamed, resized, or moved to a different volume. NVMe namespaces do not support the assignment of a QoS policy for performance management, but a QoS policy can be assigned to the volume containing the namespace. See the NVMe namespace object model to learn more about each of the properties supported by the NVMe namespace REST API.
An NVMe namespace must be mapped to an NVMe subsystem to grant access to the subsystem's hosts. Hosts can then access the NVMe namespace and perform I/O using the NVMe over Fabrics protocol.
parent_consistency_group GET POST PATCH: The parent_consistency_group field of the consistency_group.
provisioning_options GET POST PATCH: The provisioning_options field of the consistency_group.
qos GET POST PATCH: The qos field of the consistency_group.
replicated GET: Indicates whether or not replication has been enabled on this consistency group.
replication_source GET: Indicates whether or not this consistency group is the source for replication.
restore_to PATCH: The restore_to field of the consistency_group.
snapshot_policy GET POST PATCH: The Snapshot copy policy of the consistency group.
This is the dedicated consistency group Snapshot copy policy, not an aggregation of the volume granular Snapshot copy policy.
space GET POST PATCH: The space field of the consistency_group.
svm GET POST PATCH: The Storage Virtual Machine (SVM) in which the consistency group is located.
tiering GET POST: The tiering field of the consistency_group.
uuid GET: The unique identifier of the consistency group. The UUID is generated by ONTAP when the consistency group is created.

Example: 1cd8a442-86d1-11e0-ae1c-123478563412
volumes GET POST: A consistency group is a mutually exclusive aggregation of volumes or other consistency groups. A volume can only be associated with one direct parent consistency group.
The volumes array can be used to create new volumes in the consistency group, add existing volumes to the consistency group, or modify existing volumes that are already members of the consistency group.
The total number of volumes across all child consistency groups contained in a consistency group is constrained by the same limit.
