As per latest PowerShell tool kit 9.14.1.2401, Cmdlet "New-NcFlexcache" shows Flexcache feature is not supported in ONTAP 8.3, so this cmdlet works in ONTAP 8.2 or lower only.
I would like to know how to use FlexCache from PowerShell for latest ONTAP versions.

 

Details:

PS > Get-help New-NcFlexcache -full

New-NcFlexcache

Flexcache feature is not supported in ONTAP 8.3, so this cmdlet works in ONTAP 8.2 or lower only.

Hi,

 

If there is no CmdLet available to perform the task you want to achieve or a CmdLet only works with a particular version of ONTAP you can always use the Private REST CLI to invoke a CLI command via HTTPS.

 

PS C:\> Get-Help Invoke-NcCli

NAME
    Invoke-NcCli

SYNOPSIS
    For using the private CLI passthrough with the ONTAP REST API


SYNTAX
    Invoke-NcCli -Command <String> [-Query <String>] [-Body <String>] [-Fields <String>] [<CommonParameters>]


DESCRIPTION
    For using the private CLI passthrough with the ONTAP REST API. This cmdlet is supported with Rest.
