Validate a data policy without import

Availability: This command is available to cluster and Vserver administrators at the admin privilege level.

Description

The vserver data-policy validate command checks a data policy for errors, without modifying the data policy for the Vserver with Infinite Volume.

Parameters

-vserver <vserver name> - Vserver Name

This specifies the Vserver with Infinite Volume for which the data policy will be validated.

Examples

The following examples show first a problem with a given data policy, and then an example of a valid data policy.

cluster1::> vserver data-policy validate -vserver vs1

Enter the contents of the file data policy for Vserver "vs1":
Press <Enter> when done

{ "foo" : "bar" }
Error: command failed: Data Policy validation failed: 'ruleset_format_version'
       is a required field.

cluster1::> vserver data-policy validate -vserver vs1

Enter the contents of the file data policy for Vserver "vs1":
Press <Enter> when done

{ "ruleset_format_version" : "1.0",
  "rules" : [
    { "rule_label" : "default",
      "rule_id" : "ec17a05f-7785-11e1-baf4-123478563412",
      "rule_scope" : [],
      "rule_epoch" : { "epoch_reference" : "ctime" },
      "rule_epochs" : {
        "0" : {
          "local" : {
            "metadata" : {
              "storageservice" : "-"
            }
          }
        }
      }
    }
  ]
}

Data Policy validation succeeded: No errors found.
