Update a cloud target

PDFs

PATCH /cloud/targets/{uuid}

Introduced In: 9.6

Updates the cloud target specified by the UUID with the fields in the body. This request starts a job and returns a link to that job.

  • storage aggregate object-store config modify

Parameters

Name Type In Required Description

uuid

string

path

True

Cloud target UUID

ignore_warnings

boolean

query

False

Specifies whether or not warnings should be ignored.

check_only

boolean

query

False

Do not modify the configuration, only check that the PATCH request succeeds.

return_timeout

integer

query

False

The number of seconds to allow the call to execute before returning. When doing a POST, PATCH, or DELETE operation on a single record, the default is 0 seconds. This means that if an asynchronous operation is started, the server immediately returns HTTP code 202 (Accepted) along with a link to the job. If a non-zero value is specified for POST, PATCH, or DELETE operations, ONTAP waits that length of time to see if the job completes so it can return something other than 202.

  • Default value: 1

  • Max value: 120

  • Min value: 0

Request Body

Name Type Description

access_key

string

Access key ID for AWS_S3 and other S3 compatible provider types.

authentication_type

string

Authentication used to access the target. SnapMirror does not yet support CAP. Required in POST.

azure_account

string

Azure account

azure_private_key

string

Azure access key

cap_url

string

This parameter is available only when auth-type is CAP. It specifies a full URL of the request to a CAP server for retrieving temporary credentials (access-key, secret-pasword, and session token) for accessing the object store.

certificate_validation_enabled

boolean

Is SSL/TLS certificate validation enabled? The default value is true. This can only be modified for SGWS, IBM_COS, and ONTAP_S3 provider types.

  • Introduced in: 9.6

cluster

cluster

name

string

Cloud target name

port

integer

Port number of the object store that ONTAP uses when establishing a connection. Required in POST.

  • Introduced in: 9.6

secret_password

string

Secret access key for AWS_S3 and other S3 compatible provider types.

server

string

Fully qualified domain name of the object store server. Required on POST. For Amazon S3, server name must be an AWS regional endpoint in the format s3.amazonaws.com or s3-.amazonaws.com, for example, s3-us-west-2.amazonaws.com. The region of the server and the bucket must match. For Azure, if the server is a "blob.core.windows.net" or a "blob.core.usgovcloudapi.net", then a value of azure-account followed by a period is added in front of the server.

server_side_encryption

string

Encryption of data at rest by the object store server for AWS_S3 and other S3 compatible provider types. This is an advanced property. In most cases it is best not to change default value of "sse_s3" for object store servers which support SSE-S3 encryption. The encryption is in addition to any encryption done by ONTAP at a volume or at an aggregate level. Note that changing this option does not change encryption of data which already exist in the object store.

  • enum: ["none", "sse_s3"]

  • Introduced in: 9.7

snapmirror_use

string

Use of the cloud target by SnapMirror.

ssl_enabled

boolean

SSL/HTTPS enabled or not

svm

svm

This field is only applicable when used for SnapMirror and FabricLink. For POST and PATCH, SVM information is required for SnapMirror and FabricLink targets and not allowed for FabricPool targets.

url_style

string

URL style used to access S3 bucket.

use_http_proxy

boolean

Use HTTP proxy when connecting to the object store.

used

integer

The amount of cloud space used by all the aggregates attached to the target, in bytes. This field is only populated for FabricPool targets. The value is recalculated once every 5 minutes.
