To create a volume¶
You can create a volume that you can then attach to any Virtual Machine whithin the same account, compute zone and availability zone. For create a volume the [json] is required then you have to use the command below:
$ beehive provider volumes add <json file>
Create volume
volume:
container: ResourceProvider01
name: demo-volume01
desc: demo-volume01
compute_zone: ComputeService-44ff4cf3
availability_zone: SiteVercelli01
size: 5
type: openstack
flavor: vol.default
optional arguments:
-h, --help show this help message and exit
--debug toggle debug output
--quiet suppress all output
-o {json} output handler
-v, --version show program's version number and exit
-k KEY, --key KEY Secret key file to use for encryption/decryption
--vault VAULT Ansible vault password to use for inventory decryption
-e ENV, --env ENV Execution environment
-E ENVS, --envs ENVS Comma separated execution environments
-f FRMT, --frmt FRMT response format
--color COLOR response colered. Can be true or false. [default=true]
--verbose VERBOSITY ansible verbosity
--cmds list available commands
--notruncate disable long string truncation
--truncate TRUNCATE set max length of long string
--curl log curl request
--fields FIELDS response fields
--afields AFIELDS response additional fields
-y, --assumeyes Assume that the answer to any question which would be
asked is yes.
-rt, --runtime Enable command duration log.
The last step is to create volume using
To create json¶
The requirements that you need for json are [flavors], [computezones] and [others]. You can generate a json file using this CLI’s command:
[login@cmpto1-cons02 ~]$ more add-volume.json
{
"volume":{
"container": "ResourceProvider01",
"name":"dbs-tst-001-aefd07ad-volume-1",
"desc":"Disco-dati",
"compute_zone": "ComputeService-366929f1",
"availability_zone": "SiteTorino02",
"type":"vsphere",
"flavor": "vol.oracle.default",
"size": 200
}
}
To know flavors¶
The command to know a flavour is:
$ beehive provider volumeflavors list
List provider items
optional arguments:
-h, --help show this help message and exit
--debug toggle debug output
--quiet suppress all output
-o {json} output handler
-v, --version show program's version number and exit
-k KEY, --key KEY Secret key file to use for encryption/decryption
--vault VAULT Ansible vault password to use for inventory decryption
-e ENV, --env ENV Execution environment
-E ENVS, --envs ENVS Comma separated execution environments
-f FRMT, --frmt FRMT response format
--color COLOR response colered. Can be true or false. [default=true]
--verbose VERBOSITY ansible verbosity
--cmds list available commands
--notruncate disable long string truncation
--truncate TRUNCATE set max length of long string
--curl log curl request
--fields FIELDS response fields
--afields AFIELDS response additional fields
-y, --assumeyes Assume that the answer to any question which would be
asked is yes.
-rt, --runtime Enable command duration log.
To know compute zones¶
CLI is going to show you the compute zone using the command
$ beehive provider compute-zones list
List compute-zones
optional arguments:
-h, --help show this help message and exit
--debug toggle debug output
--quiet suppress all output
-o {json} output handler
-v, --version show program's version number and exit
-k KEY, --key KEY Secret key file to use for encryption/decryption
--vault VAULT Ansible vault password to use for inventory decryption
-e ENV, --env ENV Execution environment
-E ENVS, --envs ENVS Comma separated execution environments
-f FRMT, --frmt FRMT response format
--color COLOR response colered. Can be true or false. [default=true]
--verbose VERBOSITY ansible verbosity
--cmds list available commands
--notruncate disable long string truncation
--truncate TRUNCATE set max length of long string
--curl log curl request
--fields FIELDS response fields
--afields AFIELDS response additional fields
-y, --assumeyes Assume that the answer to any question which would be
asked is yes.
-rt, --runtime Enable command duration log.
To know other information¶
The las info that you need for create a json are get using the command:
$ beehive provider volumes list
List volumes
optional arguments:
-h, --help show this help message and exit
--debug toggle debug output
--quiet suppress all output
-o {json} output handler
-v, --version show program's version number and exit
-k KEY, --key KEY Secret key file to use for encryption/decryption
--vault VAULT Ansible vault password to use for inventory decryption
-e ENV, --env ENV Execution environment
-E ENVS, --envs ENVS Comma separated execution environments
-f FRMT, --frmt FRMT response format
--color COLOR response colered. Can be true or false. [default=true]
--verbose VERBOSITY ansible verbosity
--cmds list available commands
--notruncate disable long string truncation
--truncate TRUNCATE set max length of long string
--curl log curl request
--fields FIELDS response fields
--afields AFIELDS response additional fields
-y, --assumeyes Assume that the answer to any question which would be
asked is yes.
-rt, --runtime Enable command duration log.
