HP 3PAR Web Service API 1.3.1 Developer's Guide

property syntax is used to define the components of the query
string. The subproperties of a complex property are accessed
by using brackets ([ ]) to enclose the expressions related to
the complex property. Only the OR operator is supported.
For example:
http://<server>/api/v1/hosts?query=”iSCSIPaths
[name==value1 OR name==value2 … OR
keyN==valueN] OR FCPaths [wwn==value1 OR
wwn==value2 … OR wwn==valueN]”
For VV objects Volume collections can be filtered only through the wwn
attribute:
http://<server>/api/v1/volumes?query=”wwn==value1
OR wwn==value2 … OR wwn==valueN”
For port device objects Port device collections can be filtered only through the
portPos attribute:
http://<server>/api/v1/portdevices?query=”portPos==value1
OR portPos==value2 … OR portPos==valueN”
For FC switch objects FC switch collections can be filtered only through the
portPos attribute:
http://<server>/api/v1/fcswitches?query=”portPos==value1
OR portPos==value2 … OR portPos==valueN”
