Description of NetApp cDOT iSCSI driver configuration options
Configuration option = Default value Description
[DEFAULT]
netapp_login = None (StrOpt) Administrative user account name used to access the storage system or proxy server.
netapp_password = None (StrOpt) Password for the administrative user account specified in the netapp_login option.
netapp_server_hostname = None (StrOpt) The hostname (or IP address) for the storage system or proxy server.
netapp_server_port = 80 (IntOpt) The TCP port to use for communication with the storage system or proxy server. Traditionally, port 80 is used for HTTP and port 443 is used for HTTPS; however, this value should be changed if an alternate port has been configured on the storage system or proxy server.
netapp_size_multiplier = 1.2 (FloatOpt) The quantity to be multiplied by the requested volume size to ensure enough space is available on the virtual storage server (Vserver) to fulfill the volume creation request.
netapp_storage_family = ontap_cluster (StrOpt) The storage family type used on the storage system; valid values are ontap_7mode for using Data ONTAP operating in 7-Mode, ontap_cluster for using clustered Data ONTAP, or eseries for using E-Series.
netapp_storage_protocol = None (StrOpt) The storage protocol to be used on the data path with the storage system; valid values are iscsi or nfs.
netapp_transport_type = http (StrOpt) The transport protocol used when communicating with the storage system or proxy server. Valid values are http or https.
netapp_vserver = None (StrOpt) This option specifies the virtual storage server (Vserver) name on the storage cluster on which provisioning of block storage volumes should occur. If using the NFS storage protocol, this parameter is mandatory for storage service catalog support (utilized by Cinder volume type extra_specs support). If this option is specified, the exports belonging to the Vserver will only be used for provisioning in the future. Block storage volumes on exports not belonging to the Vserver specified by this option will continue to function normally.
