Hello all, I'm trying to figure out how to gain access to the ONTAP Developer SDK software. The ONTAP 7.3 sysadmin guide mentions the Network Appliance Advantage Developer Program, but the URL[1] there no longer works.
And, in our case, although we have several FAS units, in this particular case we'd be working with an IBM n3600. Can we access these same SDK's through the IBM channel? Yes, we're starting to look into that but I'm hoping someone out there has been through this adventure before and can advise. :)
Basically, our end goal is to be able to automate the creation and management of flexclone volumes. I'm sure we could script up a screen scraper type interfae, but these API's sound perfect. Just need to figure out how to use them and how to get access to documentation.
Thanks for any pointers!
Ray
Hi Ray Here ya go! http://communities.netapp.com/docs/DOC-1110
I would expect the N series to work exactly the same, although I've never tried it.
Share and enjoy!
