- 3.12.6. Manually resume I/O to the virtual-volumes in a distributed consistency group. In a cluster-partition scenario where the ruleset does not indicate an automatic winner, this endpoint will select the winning cluster where I/O should continue. After a cluster-partition is resolved, in the case that auto-resume-at-loser is set to false, this endpoint will resume I/O on the losing cluster.

Name Description Schema
vias_return_to
_pool
optional
For VIAS-based storage-volumes, this will return the storage
capacity of each VIAS-based volume to the pool on the
corresponding storage-array.
boolean
4.89. validate_payload
Name Schema
file_data
optional
string (byte)
4.90. vias_payload
Name Description Schema
base_name
required
The prefix to use when naming each virtual volume. string
capacity
required
The capacity of each virtual volume, in bytes. number
consistency_gr
oup
optional
Which consistency group the virtual volumes will be added
to.
string (URI)
job_name
optional
The name for the provisioning job. If omitted a random
name is generated.
string
number_of_vo
lumes
required
The number of virtual volumes to provision. number
storage_pools
required
< jobs_storage_pools
> array
storage_views
required
< string (URI) > array
thin
optional
Whether the virtual volumes and all underlying storage
should be thin provisioned.
boolean
4.91. virtual_volume_expand_payload
Name Description Schema
skip_init
optional
If skip_init is true the blocks of the expanded space will
NOT be initialized to ensure single-disk semantics. This
option should only be used under very specific
circumstances, such as part of the recovery procedure after
restoring metadata from backup.
