Hi Alex,
"volume-get-iter" will return 20 records by default unless you specify 'max-records' attribute/parameter to this API.
You can pass the "max-records" as 100 through the "args" parameter of "api-proxy", e.g.
NaElement api = new NaElement("api-proxy");
NaElement request = new NaElement("request");
api.AddChildElement(request);
NaElement arg_s = new NaElement("args");
request.AddChildElement(arg_s);
arg_s.AddNewChild("max-records", "100");
You can alsp extract the "next-tag" and pass it as a value for parameter "tag" in subsequent iterations.
For the first iteration, you need not pass the "tag" parameter. When all the records are retrieved, "next-tag" is have "null" value.
Here is a sample code which will give you an idea of how to iterate using next-tag:
class VolumeList
{
static void Main(string[] args)
{
try
{
NaServer s = new NaServer(Properties.Settings.Default.DFMServer, 1, 0);
s.ServerType = NaServer.SERVER_TYPE.DFM;
s.TransportType = NaServer.TRANSPORT_TYPE.HTTPS;
s.Port = 8488; // assuming you are using DFM 4.x or 5.x versions. For 6.x, use s.Port = 443;
s.Style = NaServer.AUTH_STYLE.LOGIN_PASSWORD;
s.SetAdminUser(Properties.Settings.Default.DFMUsername, Properties.Settings.Default.DFMPassword);
String tag = "";
while (tag != null)
{
NaElement api = new NaElement("api-proxy");
NaElement request = new NaElement("request");
api.AddChildElement(request);
NaElement arg_s = new NaElement("args");
request.AddChildElement(arg_s);
arg_s.AddNewChild("tag", tag);
request.AddNewChild("name", "volume-get-iter");
api.AddNewChild("target", "<ip address of the storage system>");
NaElement xo = s.InvokeElem(api);
NaElement response = xo.GetChildByName("response");
String status = response.GetChildContent("status");
if(status.Equals("passed"))
{
NaElement results = response.GetChildByName("results");
int num_records = results.GetChildIntValue("num-records", 0);
if (num_records > 0)
{
NaElement attributes_list = results.GetChildByName("attributes-list");
NaElement volume_attributes = attributes_list.GetChildByName("volume-attributes");
NaElement volume_id_attributes = volume_attributes.GetChildByName("volume-id-attributes");
String vserver_name = volume_id_attributes.GetChildContent("owning-vserver-name");
String aggr_name = volume_id_attributes.GetChildContent("containing-aggregate-name");
String vol_name = volume_id_attributes.GetChildContent("name");
Console.WriteLine("Volume: " + vserver_name + ":" + aggr_name + "/" + vol_name);
}
tag = results.GetChildContent("next-tag");
}
}
}
catch (NaAuthException e)
{
Console.Error.WriteLine("Authorization Failed: " + e.Message);
}
catch (NaApiFailedException e)
{
Console.Error.WriteLine("API FAILED: " + e.Message);
}
catch (Exception e)
{
Console.Error.WriteLine(e.Message);
}
}
}
Regards,
Sen.
