Module netapp_ontap.resources.qtree

Copyright © 2022 NetApp Inc. All rights reserved.

Overview

A qtree is a logically defined file system that can exist as a special subdirectory of the root directory within a FlexVol volume or a FlexGroup volume.

Qtree QoS policy

Qtree QoS policy and settings enforce Service Level Objectives (SLOs) on a qtree. SLOs can be set by specifying "qos_policy.max_throughput_iops" and/or "qos_policy.max_throughput_mbps" or "qos_policy.min_throughput_iops" and/or "qos_policy.min_throughput_mbps". Specifying "min_throughput_iops" or "min_throughput_mbps" is only supported on volumes hosted on a node that is flash optimized. A pre-created QoS policy can also be used by specifying "qos_policy.name" or "qos_policy.uuid" properties. Setting or assigning a QoS policy to a qtree is not supported if its containing volume or SVM has a QoS policy attached, or a file or LUN in its containing volume already has a QoS policy attached.

Qtree APIs

The following APIs are used to create, retrieve, modify, and delete qtrees.

  • POST /api/storage/qtrees
  • GET /api/storage/qtrees
  • GET /api/storage/qtrees/{volume-uuid}/{qtree-id}
  • PATCH /api/storage/qtrees/{volume-uuid}/{qtree-id}
  • DELETE /api/storage/qtrees/{volume-uuid}/{qtree-id}

Examples

Creating a qtree inside a volume for an SVM

This API is used to create a qtree inside a volume for an SVM.
The following example shows how to create a qtree in a FlexVol volume with a given security style, user, group, UNIX permissions, an export policy, and a QoS policy.


from netapp_ontap import HostConnection
from netapp_ontap.resources import Qtree

with HostConnection("<mgmt-ip>", username="admin", password="password", verify=False):
    resource = Qtree()
    resource.svm = {"name": "svm1"}
    resource.volume = {"name": "fv"}
    resource.name = "qt1"
    resource.security_style = "unix"
    resource.user = {"name": "unix_user1"}
    resource.group = {"name": "unix_group1"}
    resource.unix_permissions = 744
    resource.export_policy = {"name": "default"}
    resource.qos_policy = {"max_throughput_iops": 1000}
    resource.post(hydrate=True)
    print(resource)

Qtree(
    {
        "unix_permissions": 744,
        "group": {"name": "unix_group1"},

Classes

class Qtree (*args, **kwargs)

A qtree is a directory at the top level of a volume to which a custom export policy (for fine-grained access control) and a quota rule can be applied, if required.

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

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('Qtree')] = 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

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

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.

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

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

Creates a qtree in a FlexVol volume or a FlexGroup volume.
After a qtree is created, the new qtree is assigned an identifier. This identifier is obtained using a qtree GET request. This identifier is used in the API path for the qtree PATCH and DELETE operations.

Required properties

  • svm.uuid or svm.name - Existing SVM in which to create the qtree.
  • volume.uuid or volume.name - Existing volume in which to create the qtree.
  • name - Name for the qtree.

If not specified in POST, the values are inherited from the volume. * security_style - Security style for the qtree. * unix_permissions - UNIX permissions for the qtree. * export_policy.name or export_policy.id - Export policy of the SVM for the qtree.
