## Synopsis

- Modify Volume AutoSize

## Requirements

The below requirements are needed on the host that executes this module.

- A physical or virtual clustered Data ONTAP system. The modules support Data ONTAP 9.1 and onward
- Ansible 2.6
- Python2 netapp-lib (2017.10.30) or later. Install using ‘pip install netapp-lib’
- Python3 netapp-lib (2018.11.13) or later. Install using ‘pip install netapp-lib’
- To enable http on the cluster you must run the following commands ‘set -privilege advanced;’ ‘system services web modify -http-enabled true;’

## Parameters

Parameter | Choices/Defaults | Comments
--- | --- | ---
grow_threshold_percent integer |  | Specifies the percentage of the flexible volume's capacity at which autogrow is initiated. The default grow threshold varies from 85% to 98%, depending on the volume size. It is an error for the grow threshold to be less than or equal to the shrink threshold. Range between 0 and 100
hostname string / required |  | The hostname or IP address of the ONTAP instance.
http_port integer |  | Override the default port (80 or 443) with this port
https boolean | Choices: no ← yes | Enable and disable https
increment_size string |  | Specify the flexible volume's increment size using the following format < number > [k|m|g|t] The amount is the absolute size to set. The trailing 'k', 'm', 'g', and 't' indicates the desired units, namely 'kilobytes', 'megabytes', 'gigabytes', and 'terabytes' (respectively).
maximum_size string |  | Specify the flexible volume's maximum allowed size using the following format < number > [k|m|g|t] The amount is the absolute size to set. The trailing 'k', 'm', 'g', and 't' indicates the desired units, namely 'kilobytes', 'megabytes', 'gigabytes', and 'terabytes' (respectively). The default value is 20% greater than the volume size at the time autosize was enabled. It is an error for the maximum volume size to be less than the current volume size. It is also an error for the maximum size to be less than or equal to the minimum size.
minimum_size string |  | Specify the flexible volume's minimum allowed size using the following format < number > [k|m|g|t] The amount is the absolute size to set. The trailing 'k', 'm', 'g', and 't' indicates the desired units, namely 'kilobytes', 'megabytes', 'gigabytes', and 'terabytes' (respectively). The default value is the size of the volume at the time the 'grow_shrink' mode was enabled. It is an error for the minimum size to be greater than or equal to the maximum size.
mode string | Choices: grow grow_shrink off | Specify the flexible volume's autosize mode of operation.
ontapi integer |  | The ontap api version to use
password string / required |  | Password for the specified user. aliases: pass
reset boolean | Choices: no yes | Sets the values of maximum_size, increment_size, minimum_size, grow_threshold_percent, shrink_threshold_percent and mode to their defaults
shrink_threshold_percent integer |  | Specifies the percentage of the flexible volume's capacity at which autoshrink is initiated. The default shrink threshold is 50%. It is an error for the shrink threshold to be greater than or equal to the grow threshold. Range between 0 and 100
use_rest string | Choices: Never Always Auto ← | REST API if supported by the target system for all the resources and attributes the module requires. Otherwise will revert to ZAPI. Always -- will always use the REST API Never -- will always use the ZAPI Auto -- will try to use the REST Api
username string / required |  | This can be a Cluster-scoped or SVM-scoped account, depending on whether a Cluster-level or SVM-level API is required. For more information, please read the documentation https://mysupport.netapp.com/NOW/download/software/nmsdk/9.4/. aliases: user
validate_certs boolean | Choices: no yes ← | If set to `no`, the SSL certificates will not be validated. This should only set to `False` used on personally controlled sites using self-signed certificates.
volume string / required |  | The name of the flexible volume for which we want to set autosize.
vserver string / required |  | Name of the vserver to use.

## Notes

Note

- The modules prefixed with na\_ontap are built to support the ONTAP storage platform.
