GET /protocols/fpolicy/{svm.uuid}/engines

Introduced In: 9.6

Retrieves FPolicy engine configurations of all the engines for a specified SVM. ONTAP allows creation of cluster-level FPolicy engines that act as a template for all the SVMs belonging to the cluster. These cluster-level FPolicy engines are also retrieved for the specified SVM.

buffer_size

Specifies the send and recieve buffer size of the connected socket for the FPolicy server.

Name Type Description

recv_buffer

integer

Specifies the receive buffer size of the connected socket for the FPolicy server. Default value is 256KB.

send_buffer

integer

Specifies the send buffer size of the connected socket for the FPolicy server. Default value 1MB.

certificate

Provides details about certificate used to authenticate the Fpolicy server.

Name Type Description

ca

string

Specifies the certificate authority (CA) name of the certificate used for authentication if SSL authentication between the SVM and the FPolicy server is configured.

name

string

Specifies the certificate name as a fully qualified domain name (FQDN) or custom common name. The certificate is used if SSL authentication between the SVM and the FPolicy server is configured.

serial_number

string

Specifies the serial number of the certificate used for authentication if SSL authentication between the SVM and the FPolicy server is configured.

resiliency

If all primary and secondary servers are down, or if no response is received from the FPolicy servers, file access events are stored inside the storage controller under the specified resiliency-directory-path.

Name Type Description

directory_path

string

Specifies the directory path under the SVM namespace, where notifications are stored in the files whenever a network outage happens.

enabled

boolean

Specifies whether the resiliency feature is enabled or not. Default is false.

retention_duration

string

Specifies the ISO-8601 duration, for which the notifications are written to files inside the storage controller during a network outage. The value for this field must be between 0 and 600 seconds. Default is 180 seconds.

svm

Name Type Description

uuid

string

SVM UUID

fpolicy_engine

Defines how ONTAP makes and manages connections to external FPolicy servers.

Name Type Description

buffer_size

buffer_size

Specifies the send and recieve buffer size of the connected socket for the FPolicy server.

certificate

certificate

Provides details about certificate used to authenticate the Fpolicy server.

format

string

The format for the notification messages sent to the FPolicy servers. The possible values are:

  • xml - Notifications sent to the FPolicy server will be formatted using the XML schema.

  • protobuf - Notifications sent to the FPolicy server will be formatted using Protobuf schema, which is a binary form.

max_server_requests

integer

Specifies the maximum number of outstanding requests for the FPolicy server. It is used to specify maximum outstanding requests that will be queued up for the FPolicy server. The value for this field must be between 1 and 10000. The default values are 500, 1000 or 2000 for Low-end(<64 GB memory), Mid-end(>=64 GB memory) and High-end(>=128 GB memory) Platforms respectively.

name

string

Specifies the name to assign to the external server configuration.

port

integer

Port number of the FPolicy server application.

primary_servers

array[string]

request_abort_timeout

string

Specifies the ISO-8601 timeout duration for a screen request to be aborted by a storage appliance. The allowed range is between 0 to 200 seconds.

request_cancel_timeout

string

Specifies the ISO-8601 timeout duration for a screen request to be processed by an FPolicy server. The allowed range is between 0 to 100 seconds.

resiliency

resiliency

If all primary and secondary servers are down, or if no response is received from the FPolicy servers, file access events are stored inside the storage controller under the specified resiliency-directory-path.

secondary_servers

array[string]

server_progress_timeout

string

Specifies the ISO-8601 timeout duration in which a throttled FPolicy server must complete at least one screen request. If no request is processed within the timeout, connection to the FPolicy server is terminated. The allowed range is between 0 to 100 seconds.

ssl_option

string

Specifies the SSL option for external communication with the FPolicy server. Possible values include the following:

  • no_auth When set to "no_auth", no authentication takes place.

  • server_auth When set to "server_auth", only the FPolicy server is authenticated by the SVM. With this option, before creating the FPolicy external engine, the administrator must install the public certificate of the certificate authority (CA) that signed the FPolicy server certificate.

  • mutual_auth When set to "mutual_auth", mutual authentication takes place between the SVM and the FPolicy server. This means authentication of the FPolicy server by the SVM along with authentication of the SVM by the FPolicy server. With this option, before creating the FPolicy external engine, the administrator must install the public certificate of the certificate authority (CA) that signed the FPolicy server certificate along with the public certificate and key file for authentication of the SVM.

status_request_interval

string

Specifies the ISO-8601 interval time for a storage appliance to query a status request from an FPolicy server. The allowed range is between 0 to 50 seconds.

svm

svm

type

string

The notification mode determines what ONTAP does after sending notifications to FPolicy servers. The possible values are:

  • synchronous - After sending a notification, wait for a response from the FPolicy server.

  • asynchronous - After sending a notification, file request processing continues.

    • Default value: 1

    • enum: ["synchronous", "asynchronous"]

    • Introduced in: 9.6
