Re: Disabling a storage pool
You confused me David - that API seems new in 4.15 and is related to the SECONDARY storage, not primary storage - but is great to learn new stuff every day! cheers, On Tue, 29 Jun 2021 at 18:22, David Jumani wrote: > You set it as readonly via the updateImageStore API > > From: Rakesh Venkatesh > Sent: Tuesday, June 29, 2021 7:14 PM > To: users ; dev > Subject: Disabling a storage pool > > Hello folks > > Is there a way to disable a particular storage pool so that it won't be > used for further volume allocation?

Re: Disabling a storage pool
You set it as readonly via the updateImageStore API From: Rakesh Venkatesh Sent: Tuesday, June 29, 2021 7:14 PM To: users ; dev Subject: Disabling a storage pool Hello folks Is there a way to disable a particular storage pool so that it won't be used for further volume allocation? I don't want to enable the maintenance mode as that will turn off the VM's whose volumes running on that pool. I don't want to use a global setting also since this will come into effect after the threshold value is reached. In some cases even if the pool is just 10% allocated, I still want to disable it so that the current volumes will keep existing on the same pool and at the same time further deployment of volumes on this pool is disabled. I looked at the storge tags options but that involves adding tags to service offerings and I dont want to mess up with that tags. Should we add a new api to enable this feature? or any other better suggestion? -- Thanks and regards Rakesh

i was able to hack the db to make it work with storage and service offering tags but thats not useful all the time in production On Tue, Jun 29, 2021 at 5:23 PM Andrija Panic wrote: > (you can also hack the DB... just saying...) > > On Tue, 29 Jun 2021 at 17:20, Rakesh Venkatesh > wrote: > > > Thanks all for the response.

Thanks all for the response.

Re: Disabling a storage pool
yes. There is an icon on the UI which does exactly the same. -Wei On Tue, 29 Jun 2021 at 16:16, Wido den Hollander wrote: > > > Op 29-06-2021 om 15:44 schreef Rakesh Venkatesh: > > Hello folks > > > > Is there a way to disable a particular storage pool so that it won't be > > used for further volume allocation?

Re: Disabling a storage pool
Op 29-06-2021 om 15:44 schreef Rakesh Venkatesh: Hello folks Is there a way to disable a particular storage pool so that it won't be used for further volume allocation? I don't want to enable the maintenance mode as that will turn off the VM's whose volumes running on that pool. I don't want to use a global setting also since this will come into effect after the threshold value is reached. In some cases even if the pool is just 10% allocated, I still want to disable it so that the current volumes will keep existing on the same pool and at the same time further deployment of volumes on this pool is disabled. I looked at the storge tags options but that involves adding tags to service offerings and I dont want to mess up with that tags. Should we add a new api to enable this feature? or any other better suggestion? See: https://cloudstack.apache.org/api/apidocs-4.15/apis/updateStoragePool.html The 'enabled' flag does exactly what you want: 'false to disable the pool for allocation of new volumes, true to enable it back.'
