This topic describes the verbs, command-line arguments, and API parameters available for the datastore-pool noun in the BMC Cloud Lifecycle Management SDK.

Note

To delete or list pools, use the pool noun, which applies to all pool types. See pool for more information.

create

Use datastore-pool-create from the command line to create a new compute pool with the specified datastores.

Command-line syntax

clm datastore-pool-create [-h] [--waitfor TIME_OUT_SECONDS] --poolname NAME --description DESCRIPTION --podname NAME --environmentname NAME --providername NAME --vendorname NAME --datastore DATASTORE

Use datastore_pool_create in the API to create a new compute pool with the specified datastores. This command returns a VirtualDatastore API object with the same attributes and relationships.

API syntax

obj = datastore_pool_create(gcac, pool_name=None, description=None, resource_names=None, pod_name=None, network_container_name=None, provider_name=None, vendor_name=None)

obj.guid # returns the GUID
obj.name # returns the name
...

Command-line argument	API parameter	Description	Required?
--poolname	pool_name	Name of the new pool.	Yes
--description	description	Description of the pool.	Yes
--podname	pod_name	Name of the pod for the pool.	Yes
--environmentname	network_container_name	Name of the environment/network container to associate with the pool.	Yes
--providername	provider_name	Name of the provider of the cluster.	Yes
--vendorname	vendor_name	Name of the vendor of the cluster.	Yes
--clustername	resource_names	Name of the cluster to add to the pool.	Yes
--waitfor		Time in seconds to wait for response from the server, otherwise return running task details.
	gcac	GenericCloudAPIClient instance/user authentication.

update

Use datastore-pool-update from the command line to update the compute pool description or the datastores in the pool.

Command-line syntax

clm datastore-pool-update [-h] [--waitfor TIME_OUT_SECONDS] --poolname NAME [--description DESCRIPTION] [--adddatastore NAME|id:<GUID>] [--removedatastore NAME|id:<GUID>]

Use datastore_pool_update in the API to update the compute pool description or the datastores in the pool. This command returns a VirtualDatastore API object with the same attributes and relationships.

API syntax

obj = datastore_pool_update(gcac, pool_name=None, description=None, add_datastores=None, remove_datastores=None)

obj.guid # returns the GUID
obj.name # returns the name
...

Command-line argument	API parameter	Description	Required?
--poolname	pool_name	Name of the compute pool that needs to be updated.	Yes
--description	description	New description of the compute pool.
--adddatastore	add_datastores	Name or GUID of a datastore to add to the compute pool
--removedatastore	remove_datastores	Name or GUID of a datastore to remove from the compute pool
--waitfor		Time in seconds to wait for response from the server, otherwise return running task details.
	gcac	GenericCloudAPIClient instance/user authentication.
