Active IQ Unified Manager
Active IQ Unified Manager (formerly OnCommand Unified Manager) provides comprehensive management and monitoring for your ONTAP systems. It also includes a REST API to automate these tasks and enable third-party integration on supported systems.
Benefits of the REST API
There are several benefits when using the REST API provided with Active IQ Unified Manager.
By using the REST API, you can access the Active IQ Unified Manager capabilities to manage storage availability, capacity, security, protection, and performance risks.
There is a single REST endpoint available to provision and manage your workloads. This provides a simple consolidated approach to implement service level objective policies, redirect events to third-party tools, and act as an API gateway to access the ONTAP REST API at an individual cluster level.
You can automate the ONTAP provisioning and management workflows at a datacenter level. Monitoring and reporting can also be automated. This improves efficiency and provides a foundation for datacenter level aggregation.
