How can WFA modify volumes in which settings require diag mode?

While designing a workflow that create a Clustered ONTAP volume with various options, I need to create or modify the volume with the setting -atime-update set to false. It appears that this option has

to be done in diagnostic mode (set diag). Not sure how to do that since I don't see options for this setting in the canned Create or Modify Volume workflows. Could this be defined as a command or function?

Scott,

As a first comment, ANYTHING is possible with WFA. That said some CUSTOMIZATION will be required.

Regarding any "priv set diag" command requirements... those are ONLY supported to be run by NetApp Support or under very specific requirements.

I would ask that you set up a meeting with myself and any applicable parties on your side offline (hill@netapp.com) so we can best discuss how to facilitate your initiative.

Best,

Kevin
