Support for additional lun types with new-NaLun cmdlet ?

Hi, when looking at the new-NaLun documentation I don't see support for all the current available lun types (e.g. windows_gpt or hyper-v) is that something that will be added or can be handled (through PoSh) in another way?

Thanks,

Eric

mmm, too fast with the question.

used -type hyper_v and windows_gpt and it worked.

Nevermind

Thanks,

Eric

Glad it worked, Eric. It generally doesn't hurt to try something. I made a conscious choice when writing the Toolkit to avoid enumerated types for cmdlet arguments in favor of strings. Enums offer type safety, but then the Toolkit would have to change anytime Data ONTAP adds a new type value. I'll add the additional LUN types to the docs for the next release.
