13.3. Methods
13.3.1. Creating a New Storage Connection
Creating a new storage connection requires a
POST request.
It is possible to create a new storage connection without adding a storage domain. The host
id or name is optional; providing it will attempt a connection to the storage via the host.
Example 13.2. Creating a New Storage Connection
POST /api/storageconnections HTTP/1.1
Accept: application/xml
Content-type: application/xml
<storage_connection>
<type>nfs</type>
<address>domain.example.com</address>
<path>/export/storagedata/username/data</path>
<host>
<name>Host_Name</name>
</host>
</storage_connection>
13.3.2. Deleting a Storage Connection
Deleting a storage connection requires a
DELETE request. A storage connection can only be deleted if neither storage domain nor LUN disks reference it.
The host
name or id is optional; providing it unmounts the connection from that host.
Example 13.3. Deleting Storage Connection
DELETE /api/storageconnections/Storage_Connection_ID HTTP/1.1 Accept: application/xml Content-type: application/xml <host> <name>Host_Name</name> </host>
13.3.3. Updating a Storage Connection
Updating an existing storage connection requires a
PUT request. The storage domain must be in either maintenance mode or unattached to successfully update the connection.
Providing the host
name or id is optional; if provided, the host attempts a connection to the updated storage details.
Example 13.4. Updating a Storage Connection
PUT /api/storageconnections/Storage_Connection_ID HTTP/1.1
Accept: application/xml
Content-type: application/xml
<storage_connection>
<address>updated.example.domain.com</address>
<host>
<name>Host_name</name>
</host>
</storage_connection>
13.3.4. Updating an iSCSI Storage Connection
Updating an existing iSCSI storage connection requires a
PUT request. An iSCSI storage domain must be in maintenance mode or unattached to successfully update the connection.
Example 13.5. Updating a Storage Connection
PUT /api/storageconnections/Storage_Connection_ID HTTP/1.1 Accept: application/xml Content-type: application/xml <storage_connection> <port>3456</port> </storage_connection>
13.3.5. Adding New Storage Domain with Existing Storage Connection
Adding a new storage domain with existing storage connection requires a
POST request. This is only applicable with file-based storage domains: NFS, POSIX, and local.
Example 13.6. Adding a New Storage Domain with Existing Storage Connection
POST /api/storagedomains HTTP/1.1
Accept: application/xml
Content-type: application/xml
<storage_domain>
<name>New_Domain</name>
<type>data</type>
<storage id="Storage_Connection_ID"/>
<host>
<name>Host_Name</name>
</host>
</storage_domain>
13.3.6. Attaching an Additional Storage Connection to iSCSI Storage
Attaching an additional storage connection to an iSCSI storage domain requires a
POST request.
Example 13.7. Attaching an Additional Storage Connection to iSCSI Storage
POST /api/storagedomains/iSCSI_Domain_ID/storageconnections HTTP/1.1 Accept: application/xml Content-type: application/xml <storage_connection id="Storage_Connection_ID"> </storage_connection>
13.3.7. Detaching a Storage Connection from iSCSI Storage
Detaching a storage connection from an iSCSI storage domain requires a
DELETE request.
Example 13.8. Detaching a Storage Connection from iSCSI Storage
DELETE /api/storagedomains/iSCSI_Domain_ID/storageconnections/Storage_Connection_ID HTTP/1.1 Accept: application/xml Content-type: application/xml
13.3.8. Defining Credentials to an iSCSI Target
When an iSCSI storage domain is added using the Administration Portal, only a single user name and password can be specified for that domain. However, some setups require that each host in the cluster use a separate user name and password. Specific credentials can be applied to each iSCSI target per host by using the
storageconnectionextensions element.
Example 13.9. Defining credentials to an iSCSI target
POST /api/hosts/2ab5e1da-b726-4274-bbf7-0a42b16a0fc3/storageconnectionextensions HTTP/1.1
Accept: application/xml
Content-type: application/xml
<storageconnectionextension>
<target>iqn.2010.05.com.example:iscsi.targetX</target>
<username>jimmy</username>
<password>p@55w0Rd!</password>
</storageconnectionextension>
