vvol_binding

A VMware virtual volume (vVol) binding is an association between a LUN of class protocol_endpoint and a LUN of class vvol. Class protocol_endpoint LUNs are mapped to igroups and granted access using the same configuration as class regular LUNs. When a class vvol LUN is bound to a mapped class protocol_endpoint LUN, VMware can access the class vvol LUN through the class protocol_endpoint LUN mapping.

Class protocol_endpoint and vvol LUNs support many-to-many vVol bindings. A LUN of one class can be bound to zero or more LUNs of the opposite class.

The vVol binding between any two specific LUNs is reference counted. When a REST POST is executed for a vVol binding that already exists, the vVol binding reference count is incremented. When a REST DELETE is executed, the vVol binding reference count is decremented. Only when the vVol binding count reaches zero, or the query parameter delete_all_references is supplied, is the vVol binding destroyed.

count

integer

The vVol binding between any two specific LUNs is reference counted. When a REST POST is executed for a vVol binding that already exists, the vVol binding reference count is incremented. When a REST DELETE is executed, the vVol binding reference count is decremented. Only when the vVol binding count reaches zero, or the query parameter delete_all_references is supplied, is the vVol binding destroyed.

id

integer

The ONTAP internal identifier assigned to the vVol binding. The bind identifier is unique amongst all class vvol LUNs bound to the same class protocol_endpoint LUN.

This property was included in early releases of the REST API for vVols and is maintained for backward compatibility. See the secondary_id property, which replaces id.

  • example: 1

  • readOnly: 1

  • x-ntap-deprecated: 9.13.1

  • Introduced in: 9.10

  • x-nullable: true

is_optimal
