There is a sample code of creating a vfiler inside NMSDK. Please refer that.

You can also use ZExplore to create the code for vfiler-create and provide parameters there.

Hi,

I found, the problem was in the format of storage-unit, that must begin by /vol/.....

Do you know if it's possible to create by api vfiler in the same way like command line "vfiler create vfiler -r /vol/vfiler_root ?

Thanks in advance.

> NO. In vfiler-create API, both ip address and storage-unit are mandatory inputs. AFAIK, there is no equivalent API for this CLI.
