Provisioning Aggregates with Provision Manager

Is it possible to use PM to provision aggregates? I was told you can, but I can't find anything that shows how to do it.

Provisioning Manager (PM) can't be used to add, modify, delete aggregates on a storage system. You need System Manager or filer view or ONTAP CLI to do that.

If you are looking to do it through DFM and not specific about PM, it’s possible using the DFM APIs, to create aggregate on a filer.
