UnityreplicationParameters

[bananaphonee]

Hello @equelin ,

I have the following problem.
I want to set the -isReplicationDestination to true.

Well the problem I have is I want to set this option to true for some LUNs.
I found the following in the file Unity-Powershell.psm:
Class UnityreplicationParameters {
#Properties
[Bool]$isReplicationDestination #Indicates whether the storage resource is a replication destination.
Values are:

• true - Storage resource is a replication destination.
• false - (Default)
  Storage resource is not a replication destination.

#Methode
}

I also found that one as a parameter in the class unitylun.

Now I tried some things to use this in the code for set-UnityLun but I can't get it working..

This is the code I added in the set-UnityLun.ps1:
In the beginning this:

[Parameter(Mandatory = $false,HelpMessage = 'Is replication destination enabled or not')]
[bool]$isReplicationDestination,

Then where the body is made this:

$body["UnityreplicationParameters"] = @{}
$UnityreplicationParameters = @{}
If ($PSBoundParameters.ContainsKey('isReplicationDestination')) {
$UnityreplicationParameters["isReplicationDestination"] = $isReplicationDestination
}
$body["UnityreplicationParameters"] = $UnityreplicationParameters

Everytime I try this the following error occures:
The array sends an error message:

Error code: 422
Error description: Unprocessable Entity
Error details: {"error":{"errorCode":131149877,"httpStatusCode":422,"messages":[{"en-US":"Request body is not correct. There may be duplicate parameters, wrong parameter name
. Please refer to API documentation page and ensure the body is correct. (Error Code:0x7d13035)"}],"created":"2018-05-23T12:51:41.129Z"}}

  • CategoryInfo : InvalidOperation: (System.Net.HttpWebRequest:HttpWebRequest) [Invoke-WebRequest], WebException
  • FullyQualifiedErrorId : WebCmdletWebResponseException,Microsoft.PowerShell.Commands.InvokeWebRequestCommand

I don't know if this is the way to go.. But I am stuck, so all help is welcome here.

Hello @bananaphonee ,

Unfortunately, you can't manage Replication with Unity-Powershell. Defined a LUN as a replication destination is not enough to configure the wall replication process.

I'm planning to add those functions in the next release but I can't provide any release date... Any help will be very welcome ;-)

Regards

Hi @equelin,
Yeah I just found out how to set the parameter to true.
I was looking how I could setup the session between the two now..

The fault I made to make the parameter true was I used UnityreplicationParameters and this needed to be replicationParameters. Now my LUN is set to true.
