Changing the replication level of this volume will cause it to restripe, and may impact IO
performance.
Request Syntax
cliq provisionVolume clusterName= volumeName= description= size= mountPoint= login=
userName= passWord=
login
Required
The IP addresses or DNS-resolvable names of one or more storage
systems
userName
Conditional The authentication user name for the storage system. (Parameters
userName/passWord or groupName must be specified).
passWord
Conditional The password for the storage system. (Parameters userName/passWord
or groupName must be specified).
groupName
Conditional The name of the management group with cached credentials.
(Parameters userName/passWord or groupName must be specified).
clusterName
Required
The name of the cluster
volumeName
Required
The name of the volume
size
Required
The size of the volume, with units specified: <n>MB - n Megabytes
(1024 Kilobytes), <n>GB - n Gigabytes (1024 Megabytes), <n>TB - n
Terabytes (1024 Gigabytes)
description
Optional
Optional description
replication
Optional
The replication level for the volume (1|2|3|4)
minReplication
Optional
The minimum replication allowed for the volume before it goes offline
(1|2|3|4). Note: the minReplication value must be equal to or less than
the replication value on the volume.
parity
Optional
The number of parity storage systems for the data on this volume. This
enables parity network RAID on the volume. Replication and parity
are supported in the following combinations: replication:1, parity:0
Network RAID-0 (None), replication:2, parity:0 Network RAID-10
(2-way Mirror), replication:3, parity:0 Network RAID-10+1 (3-way
Mirror), replication:4, parity:0 Network RAID-10+2 (4-way Mirror),
replication:2, parity:1 Network RAID-5 (Single parity), replication:3,
parity:2 Network RAID-6 (Dual Parity)
checkSum
Optional
0 - the volume does not use checksums1 - the volume uses checksums
thinProvision
Optional
0 = the volume does not use thin-provisioning, 1 = The volume is thin-
provisioned (in a thinly provisioned volume, reserve may be < length)
initialQuota
Optional
The initial quota for the volume, as a percentage or size - the volume
resets to this initial size when a snapshot is taken
reserveQuota
Optional
The reserve quota for the volume, as a percentage or size - this is the
size guaranteed to be available for this volume, regardless of space
allocated to other objects in the system
scratchQuota
Optional
The scratch quota for the volume, as a percentage or size - this is the
size guaranteed to be available for snapshots of this volume, regardless
of space allocated to other objects in the system
mountPoint
Optional
The drive letter or mount point on the host for the volume (LUN will be
uninitialized if not specified)
stridePages
Optional
This is the initial stride setting for the volume - this must be a power of 2
(1,2,4,8)
namePrefix
Optional
A prefix string for newly created objects. A unique number value will be
concatenated to this prefix to guarantee name uniqueness.
vipLoadBalance
Optional
Use VIP load balancing for this host. This can be one of: 0 = disabled
or 1 = enabled, 1 is the default.
targetSecret
Optional
The CHAP target secret for the volume.
