This plugin enables CloudStack to provision and manage primary storage on ONTAP clusters, supporting both NAS (NFS) and SAN (iSCSI) protocols. + +## Features + +- **Primary Storage Support**: Provision and manage primary storage pools on NetApp ONTAP +- **Multiple Protocols**: Support for NFS 3.0 and iSCSI protocols +- **Unified Storage**: Integration with traditional ONTAP unified storage architecture +- **KVM Hypervisor Support**: Supports KVM hypervisor environments +- **Managed Storage**: Operates as managed storage with full lifecycle management +- **Flexible Scoping**: Support for Zone-wide and Cluster-scoped storage pools + +## Architecture + +### Component Structure + +| Package | Description | +|---------|-------------------------------------------------------| +| `driver` | Primary datastore driver implementation | +| `feign` | REST API clients and data models for ONTAP operations | +| `lifecycle` | Storage pool lifecycle management | +| `listener` | Host connection event handlers | +| `provider` | Main provider and strategy factory | +| `service` | ONTAP Storage strategy implementations (NAS/SAN) | +| `utils` | Constants and helper utilities | + +## Requirements + +### ONTAP Requirements + +- NetApp ONTAP 9.15.1 or higher +- Storage Virtual Machine (SVM) configured with appropriate protocols enabled +- Management LIF accessible from CloudStack management server +- Data LIF(s) accessible from hypervisor hosts and are of IPv4 type +- Aggregates assigned to the SVM with sufficient capacity + +### CloudStack Requirements + +- Apache CloudStack current version or higher +- KVM hypervisor hosts +- For iSCSI: Hosts must have iSCSI initiator configured with valid IQN +- For NFS: Hosts must have NFS client packages installed + +### Minimum Volume Size + +ONTAP requires a minimum volume size of **1.56 GB** (1,677,721,600 bytes). The plugin will automatically adjust requested sizes below this threshold. + +## Configuration + +### Storage Pool Creation Parameters + +When creating an ONTAP primary storage pool, provide the following details in the URL field (semicolon-separated key=value pairs): + +| Parameter | Required | Description | +|-----------|----------|-------------| +| `username` | Yes | ONTAP cluster admin username | +| `password` | Yes | ONTAP cluster admin password | +| `svmName` | Yes | Storage Virtual Machine name | +| `protocol` | Yes | Storage protocol (`NFS3` or `ISCSI`) | +| `managementLIF` | Yes | ONTAP cluster management LIF IP address | Review Comment: @sandeeplocharla does the UI accepts these parameters during create storage pool with ONTAP? -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
