Module `netapp_ontap.resources.nvme_namespace`

Overview

An NVMe namespace is a collection of addressable logical blocks presented to hosts connected to the storage virtual machine using the NVMe over Fabrics protocol.
The NVMe namespace REST API allows you to create, update, delete and discover NVMe namespaces.
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.

Performance monitoring

Performance of an NVMe namespace can be monitored by observing the metric.* and statistics.* properties. These properties show the performance of an NVMe namespace in terms of IOPS, latency, and throughput. The metric.* properties denote an average, whereas statistics.* properties denote a real-time monotonically increasing value aggregated across all nodes.

Examples

Creating an NVMe namespace

This example creates a 300 gigabyte NVMe namespace, with 4096-byte blocks, in SVM svm1, volume vol1, configured for use by linux hosts. The return_records query parameter is used to retrieve properties of the newly created NVMe namespace in the POST response.

from netapp_ontap import HostConnection
from netapp_ontap.resources import NvmeNamespace

with HostConnection("<mgmt-ip>", username="admin", password="password", verify=False):
    resource = NvmeNamespace()
    resource.svm = {"name": "svm1"}
    resource.os_type = "linux"
    resource.space = {"block_size": "4096", "size": "300G"}
    resource.name = "/vol/vol1/namespace1"
    resource.post(hydrate=True)
    print(resource)

from netapp_ontap import HostConnection
from netapp_ontap.resources import NvmeNamespace

with HostConnection("<mgmt-ip>", username="admin", password="password", verify=False):
    resource = NvmeNamespace(uuid="dccdc3e6-cf4e-498f-bec6-f7897f945669")
    resource.comment = "Data for the research department."
    resource.patch()

Updating the size of an NVMe namespace

This example increases the size of an NVMe namespace.

Cloning NVMe namespaces

A clone of an NVMe namespace is an independent "copy" of the namespace that shares unchanged data blocks with the original. As blocks of the source and clone are modified, unique blocks are written for each. NVMe namespace clones can be created quickly and consume very little space initially. They can be created for the purpose of back-up, or to replicate data for multiple consumers.
An NVMe namespace clone can also be set to auto-delete by setting the auto_delete property. If the namespace's volume is configured for automatic deletion, NVMe namespaces that have auto-delete enabled are deleted when a volume is nearly full to reclaim a target amount of free space in the volume.

Creating a new NVMe namespace clone

You create an NVMe namespace clone as you create any NVMe namespace – a POST to /storage/namespaces. Set clone.source.uuid or clone.source.name to identify the source NVMe namespace from which the clone is created. The NVMe namespace clone and its source must reside in the same volume.
The source NVMe namespace can reside in a Snapshot copy, in which case, the clone.source.name field must be used to identify it. Add /.snapshot/<snapshot_name> to the path after the volume name to identify the Snapshot copy. For example /vol/vol1/.snapshot/snap1/namespace1.

from netapp_ontap import HostConnection
from netapp_ontap.resources import NvmeNamespace

with HostConnection("<mgmt-ip>", username="admin", password="password", verify=False):
    resource = NvmeNamespace()
    resource.svm = {"name": "svm1"}
    resource.name = "/vol/vol1/namespace2clone1"
    resource.clone = {"source": {"name": "/vol/vol1/namespace2"}}
    resource.post(hydrate=True)
    print(resource)

Over-writing an existing NVMe namespace's data as a clone of another

You can over-write an existing NVMe namespace as a clone of another. You do this as a PATCH on the NVMe namespace to overwrite – a PATCH to /storage/namespaces/{uuid}. Set the clone.source.uuid or clone.source.name property to identify the source NVMe namespace from which the clone data is taken. The NVMe namespace clone and its source must reside in the same volume.
When used in a PATCH, the patched NVMe namespace's data is over-written as a clone of the source and the following properties are preserved from the patched namespace unless otherwise specified as part of the PATCH: auto_delete, subsystem_map, status.state, and uuid.

from netapp_ontap import HostConnection
from netapp_ontap.resources import NvmeNamespace

with HostConnection("<mgmt-ip>", username="admin", password="password", verify=False):
    resource = NvmeNamespace(uuid="dccdc3e6-cf4e-498f-bec6-f7897f945669")
    resource.clone = {"source": {"name": "/vol/vol1/namespace2"}}
    resource.patch()

Deleting an NVMe namespace

from netapp_ontap import HostConnection
from netapp_ontap.resources import NvmeNamespace

with HostConnection("<mgmt-ip>", username="admin", password="password", verify=False):
    resource = NvmeNamespace(uuid="5c254d22-96a6-42ac-aad8-0cd9ebd126b6")
    resource.delete()

Classes

class NvmeNamespace (*args, **kwargs)

An NVMe namespace is a collection of addressable logical blocks presented to hosts connected to the storage virtual machine 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.

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('NvmeNamespace')] = 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

DOC /storage/namespaces

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

Retrieves NVMe namespaces.

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 Requesting specific fields to learn more. * auto_delete * subsystem_map.* * status.mapped * statistics.* * metric.*

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]

Retrieves NVMe namespaces.

Expensive properties

DOC /storage/namespaces to learn more and examples.

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('NvmeNamespace')] = None, poll: bool = True, poll_interval: Union[int, NoneType] = None, poll_timeout: Union[int, NoneType] = None, connection: HostConnection = None, **kwargs) -> NetAppResponse

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 an NVMe namespace.

DOC /storage/namespaces

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 an NVMe namespace.

Fetch the details of the object from the host.

Requires the keys to be set (if any). After returning, new or changed properties from the host will be set on the instance.

Returns

A NetAppResponse object containing the details of the HTTP response.

Raises

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

def patch(self, hydrate: bool = False, poll: bool = True, poll_interval: Union[int, NoneType] = None, poll_timeout: Union[int, NoneType] = None, **kwargs) -> NetAppResponse

Updates an NVMe namespace.

DOC /storage/namespaces

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

auto_delete GET POST PATCH

This property marks the NVMe namespace for auto deletion when the volume containing the namespace runs out of space. This is most commonly set on namespace clones.
When set to true, the NVMe namespace becomes eligible for automatic deletion when the volume runs out of space. Auto deletion only occurs when the volume containing the namespace is also configured for auto deletion and free space in the volume decreases below a particular threshold.
This property is optional in POST and PATCH. The default value for a new NVMe namespace is false.
There is an added cost to retrieving this property's value. It is not populated for either a collection GET or an instance GET unless it is explicitly requested using the fields query parameter. See Requesting specific fields to learn more.

clone POST PATCH

The clone field of the nvme_namespace.

comment GET POST PATCH

A configurable comment available for use by the administrator. Valid in POST and PATCH.

create_time GET

The time the NVMe namespace was created.

Example: 2018-06-04T19:00:00.000+0000

enabled GET

The enabled state of the NVMe namespace. Certain error conditions cause the namespace to become disabled. If the namespace is disabled, you can check the state property to determine what error disabled the namespace. An NVMe namespace is enabled automatically when it is created.

links GET

The links field of the nvme_namespace.

location GET POST

The location field of the nvme_namespace.

metric GET

The metric field of the nvme_namespace.

name GET POST

The fully qualified path name of the NVMe namespace composed of a "/vol" prefix, the volume name, the (optional) qtree name and base name of the namespace. Valid in POST.
NVMe namespaces do not support rename, or movement between volumes.

Example: /vol/volume1/qtree1/namespace1

os_type GET POST

The operating system type of the NVMe namespace.
Required in POST when creating an NVMe namespace that is not a clone of another. Disallowed in POST when creating a namespace clone.

Valid choices:

aix
linux
vmware
windows

space GET POST PATCH

The space field of the nvme_namespace.

statistics GET

The statistics field of the nvme_namespace.

status GET POST PATCH

The status field of the nvme_namespace.

subsystem_map GET POST PATCH

The subsystem_map field of the nvme_namespace.

svm GET POST PATCH

The svm field of the nvme_namespace.

uuid GET

The unique identifier of the NVMe namespace.

Example: 1cd8a442-86d1-11e0-ae1c-123478563412
