NetApp StorageGRID Webscale SG6000 Series Manual Download Page 99

For example:

./configure-storagegrid.py ./configure-storagegrid.json --start-install

After you finish

A Recovery Package 

.zip

 file is generated during the configuration process, and it is downloaded to the

directory where you are running the installation and configuration process. You must back up the Recovery
Package file so that you can recover the StorageGRID system if one or more grid nodes fails. For example,
copy it to a secure, backed up network location and to a secure cloud storage location.

The Recovery Package file must be secured because it contains encryption keys and
passwords that can be used to obtain data from the StorageGRID system.

If you specified that random passwords should be generated, you need to extract the 

Passwords.txt

 file and

look for the passwords required to access your StorageGRID system.

Your StorageGRID system is installed and configured when a confirmation message is displayed.

StorageGRID has been configured and installed.

Overview of installation REST APIs

StorageGRID provides two REST APIs for performing installation tasks: the StorageGRID
Installation API and the StorageGRID Appliance Installer API.

Both APIs use the Swagger open source API platform to provide the API documentation. Swagger allows both
developers and non-developers to interact with the API in a user interface that illustrates how the API responds
to parameters and options. This documentation assumes that you are familiar with standard web technologies
and the JSON (JavaScript Object Notation) data format.

Any API operations you perform using the API Docs webpage are live operations. Be careful not
to create, update, or delete configuration data or other data by mistake.

Each REST API command includes the API’s URL, an HTTP action, any required or optional URL parameters,
and an expected API response.
