Unable to connect to a NetApp 9.x cDOT #397

Closed angystardust closed 5 years ago

angystardust commented 5 years ago

I was trying to connect to a NetApp cDOT using lsmcli but I have this exeption:

lsmcli -u ontap+ssl://admin@mynetapp list --type snapshots -P
Password: 
PLUGIN_BUG(2): Unable to find API: system-get-info (vendor error code= 13005)

I've tried with both an ONTAP NetApp Release 9.0P2 and a Release 9.4P2 but had the same results. It does work on an old ONTAP 7mode.

Wondering if lsm support newer ONTAP releases...

Thanks for your support

NetApp LibStorageMgmt is limited to 7mode support which NetApp has removed/deprecated. At some point we will likely remove the plugin all together from libStorageMgmt as we have lost the ability to test it.

thanks for the super-fast reply, @tasleson but the question is: "is there a way to connect to an ONTAP cDOT"?

angystardust commented 5 years ago

sorry for asking it again but it isn't clear to me if LSM only supports NetApp 7mode and there is not any way to connect to a recent ONTAP version

tasleson commented 5 years ago

@angystardust No, there is no way to use libStorageMgmt to connect to a cDOT (Clustered data on tap). I corrected my earlier comment too.

:( uh that's a pity... i'll find another way to manage my NetApp cDOT snapshots in batch mode (probably ansible) thanks for the replies ;)
