Synopsis ¶

This module allows to create, modify, initialize, or delete a single storage volume.

Requirements ¶

The below requirements are needed on the host that executes this module.

python >= 2.7.5

Parameters ¶

Parameter	Choices/Defaults	Comments
baseuri string / required		IP address of the target out-of-band controller. For example- <ipaddress>:<port>.
block_size_bytes integer		Block size in bytes.Only applicable when state is `present`.
capacity_bytes string		Volume size in bytes. Only applicable when state is `present`.
command string	Choices: initialize	`initialize` initializes an existing storage volume for a specified volume_id.
controller_id string		Fully Qualified Device Descriptor (FQDD) of the storage controller. For example- RAID.Slot.1-1. This option is mandatory when state is `present` while creating a volume.
drives list / elements=string		FQDD of the Physical disks. For example- Disk.Bay.0:Enclosure.Internal.0-1:RAID.Slot.1-1. Only applicable when state is `present` when creating a new volume.
encrypted boolean	Choices: no yes	Indicates whether volume is currently utilizing encryption or not. Only applicable when state is `present`.
encryption_types string	Choices: NativeDriveEncryption ControllerAssisted SoftwareAssisted	The following encryption types can be selected. `ControllerAssisted` The volume is encrypted by the storage controller entity. `NativeDriveEncryption` The volume utilizes the native drive encryption capabilities of the drive hardware. `SoftwareAssisted` The volume is encrypted by the software running on the system or the operating system. Only applicable when state is `present`.
initialize_type string	Choices: Fast ← Slow	Initialization type of existing volume. Only applicable when command is `initialize`.
name string		Name of the volume to be created. Only applicable when state is `present`.
oem dictionary		Includes OEM extended payloads. Only applicable when state is present.
optimum_io_size_bytes integer		Stripe size value must be in multiples of 64 * 1024. Only applicable when state is `present`.
password string / required		Password of the target out-of-band controller.
state string	Choices: present absent	`present` creates a storage volume for the specified I (controller_id), or modifies the storage volume for the specified I (volume_id). "Note: Modification of an existing volume properties depends on drive and controller capabilities". `absent` deletes the volume for the specified volume_id.
username string / required		Username of the target out-of-band controller.
volume_id string		FQDD of existing volume. For example- Disk.Virtual.4:RAID.Slot.1-1. This option is mandatory in the following scenarios, state is `present`, when updating a volume. state is `absent`, when deleting a volume. command is `initialize`, when initializing a volume.
volume_type string	Choices: NonRedundant Mirrored StripedWithParity SpannedMirrors SpannedStripesWithParity	One of the following volume types must be selected to create a volume. `Mirrored` The volume is a mirrored device. `NonRedundant` The volume is a non-redundant storage device. `SpannedMirrors` The volume is a spanned set of mirrored devices. `SpannedStripesWithParity` The volume is a spanned set of devices which uses parity to retain redundant information. `StripedWithParity` The volume is a device which uses parity to retain redundant information.

Notes ¶
