How would one go about submitting a suggestion to NetApp?
I was thinking it would be nice, if while working in the Filer
View GUI, your operations selected would build a command line “example”
Say for instance you wanted to make a new volume from the GUI.
You go to the volume section
and you click Add.
The wizard pops up.
click next
Select your volume type
(flexible)
click next
Name the volume (vol1)
Select language (en_US)
Decide if you want to use
UTF-8 or not (no)
click next
select the aggregate (aggr0)
set your space guarantee
(volume)
click next
choose volume size type
(useable)
choose volume size (100GB)
set snapshot reserve (10%)
click next
now it shows all the options you
picked in the text box.
Create New Volume
Volume Name: vol1
Aggregate Container: aggr0
(14TB, raid_dp,mirrored)
Volume Size: 100 GB
Snapshot Reserve: 10%
Language: English (US)
(en_US)
Space Guarantee: volume
I want it to add the command line example of all the choices you
picked. So it would look something like this
Create New Volume
Volume Name: vol1
Aggregate Container: aggr0
(14TB, raid_dp,mirrored)
Volume Size: 100 GB
Snapshot Reserve: 10%
Language: English (US)
(en_US)
Space Guarantee: volume
CLI Commands used :
vol create vol1 -l en_US aggr0 -s volume 100g
snap reserve vol1 10
I couldn’t find a CLI command to specify if that 100GIG was
useable or total space, but I hope you get what I’m going for.
This might help people become more proficient in the CLI
interface, and also help build commands for scripting.
