Create a new SVM peer relationship

POST /svm/peers

Introduced In: 9.6

Creates a new SVM peer relationship.

Important notes

  • The create request accepts peer SVM name as input instead of peer SVM UUID as the local cluster cannot validate peer SVM based on UUID.

  • The input parameter name refers to the local name of the peer SVM. The peer cluster name parameter is optional for creating intracluster SVM peer relationships.

Required properties

  • svm.name or svm.uuid - SVM name or SVM UUID

  • peer.svm.name or peer.svm.uuid - Peer SVM name or Peer SVM UUID

  • peer.cluster.name or peer.cluster.uuid - Peer cluster name or peer cluster UUID

  • applications - Peering applications

  • vserver peer create

Example

Creates a new SVM peer relationship.

POST "/api/svm/peers" '{"svm":{"name":"vs1"}, "peer.cluster.name":"cluster2", "peer.svm.name":"VS1", "applications":["snapmirror"]}'

Parameters

Name Type In Required Description

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

return_records

boolean

query

False

The default is false. If set to true, the records are returned.

  • Default value:

Request Body

Name Type Description

_links

applications

array[string]

A list of applications for an SVM peer relation.

force

boolean

Use this to suspend, resume or delete the SVM peer relationship even if the remote cluster is not accessible due to, for example, network connectivity issues.

name

string

A peer SVM alias name to avoid a name conflict on the local cluster.

peer

peer

Details for a peer SVM object.

state

string

SVM peering state. To accept a pending SVM peer request, PATCH the state to "peered". To reject a pending SVM peer request, PATCH the state to "rejected". To suspend a peered SVM peer relation, PATCH the state to "suspended". To resume a suspended SVM peer relation, PATCH the state to "peered". The states "initiated", "pending", and "initializing" are system-generated and cannot be used for PATCH.
