Fail to create vdisk

[shunliz]

with runing below code:

import pypowervm.tasks.storage as ts from pypowervm.helpers import log_helper as log_hlp from pypowervm.helpers import vios_busy as vio_hlp from pypowervm import adapter as pvm_apt

from pypowervm.tasks import storage as pvm_stor

adapter = pvm_apt.Adapter(pvm_apt.Session(host='10.16.11.58', username='hscroot', password='abc1234', conn_tries=60), helpers=[log_hlp.log_helper, vio_hlp.vios_busy_retry_helper])

vios_w, vg_w = pvm_stor.find_vg(adapter, 'sys_disk_pool') _vios_uuid = vios_w.uuid

ret = ts.crt_vdisk(adapter, _vios_uuid, vg_w.uuid, 'vdisk_name', 10, file_format='raw')

I got the following error: Traceback (most recent call last): File "imagetool2.py", line 19, in ret = ts.crt_vdisk(adapter, _vios_uuid, vg_w.uuid, 'vdisk_name', 10, file_format='raw') File "/root/venv/venv/lib/python3.6/site-packages/oslo_concurrency/lockutils.py", line 274, in inner return f(args, kwargs) File "/root/venv/venv/lib/python3.6/site-packages/pypowervm/tasks/storage.py", line 655, in crt_vdisk vol_grp = vol_grp.update() File "/root/venv/venv/lib/python3.6/site-packages/pypowervm/wrappers/entry_wrapper.py", line 1151, in update timeout=timeout)) File "/root/venv/venv/lib/python3.6/site-packages/pypowervm/adapter.py", line 846, in update_by_path path = util.dice_href(path) File "/root/venv/venv/lib/python3.6/site-packages/pypowervm/adapter.py", line 646, in _request resp = func(method, path, kwds) File "/root/venv/venv/lib/python3.6/site-packages/pypowervm/helpers/log_helper.py", line 150, in log_req_resp response = func(args, *kwds) File "/root/venv/venv/lib/python3.6/site-packages/pypowervm/helpers/vios_busy.py", line 60, in wrapper resp = func(args, **kwds) File "/root/venv/venv/lib/python3.6/site-packages/pypowervm/adapter.py", line 432, in request raise self._get_httperror(resp) pypowervm.exceptions.HttpError: HTTP error 400 for method POST on path /rest/api/uom/VirtualIOServer/29297CDE-1A48-4B59-930E-254A9813C1A7/VolumeGroup/b3dbd341-60d3-3715-a782-726b01ce7f5d?group=None: Bad Request -- REST0001 Failed to unmarshal input payload.

Seems the VolumeGroup:VirtualDiskType does not compatible with the hmc rest server. Does specific verison of hmc required for pypowervm project?

By the way, i am runing hmc version 8.3.0.

pypowervm is designed to talk to NovaLink, not HMC.
