I am working on a script to close all open files within a specific folder. I started down the path of using the REST API, but was unable to get the information needed to run the /protocols/cifs/session/files/{node.uuid}/{svm.uuid}/{identifier}/{connection.identifier}/{session.identifier} command.
According to https://library.netapp.com/ecmdocs/ECMLP2884821/html/#/NAS/cifs_open_file_collection_get You should get the following response:
# The response:
{

},
"svm": {

"name": "svm1"
},

},

"path": "a\\b\\c\\f2",
"continuously_available": "no",
"reconnected": "No",
"range_lock_count": 0
}
],
"num_records": 2
}
However, the response I get is missing all the information after session_id:
{
"records": [
{
"node": {
"uuid": "XXX",
"name": "XXX",
"_links": {
"self": {
"href": "/api/cluster/nodes/XXX"
}
}
},
"svm": {
"name": "XXX",
"uuid": "XXX"
},
"identifier": XXX,
"connection": {
"identifier": XXX
},
"session": {
"identifier": XXX
},
"_links": {
"self": {
"href": "/api/protocols/cifs/session/files/XXX/XXX/XXX/XXX/XXX"
}
}
}
],
"num_records": 1,
"_links": {
"self": {
"href": "/api/protocols/cifs/session/files?"
}
}
}
My current work around has been to use private cli command:
https://xxx/api/private/cli/cifs/session/file?fields=node,connection_id,session_id,file_id,path
The problem with the private cli command is that I need the svm Uuid and that is not a viable field. Though I do know the SVM of the folder in question, so that won't change, but wanted to make the script a bit more modular to handle any folder/file path combo.
