CreateFileSystemOntapConfiguration - Amazon FSx
Services or capabilities described in Amazon Web Services documentation might vary by Region. To see the differences applicable to the China Regions, see Getting Started with Amazon Web Services in China (PDF).

CreateFileSystemOntapConfiguration

The ONTAP configuration properties of the FSx for ONTAP file system that you are creating.

Contents

DeploymentType

Specifies the FSx for ONTAP file system deployment type to use in creating the file system.

  • MULTI_AZ_1 - (Default) A high availability file system configured for Multi-AZ redundancy to tolerate temporary Availability Zone (AZ) unavailability.

  • SINGLE_AZ_1 - A file system configured for Single-AZ redundancy.

  • SINGLE_AZ_2 - A file system configured with multiple high-availability (HA) pairs for Single-AZ redundancy.

For information about the use cases for Multi-AZ and Single-AZ deployments, refer to Choosing a file system deployment type.

Type: String

Valid Values: MULTI_AZ_1 | SINGLE_AZ_1 | SINGLE_AZ_2

Required: Yes

AutomaticBackupRetentionDays

The number of days to retain automatic backups. Setting this property to 0 disables automatic backups. You can retain automatic backups for a maximum of 90 days. The default is 30.

Type: Integer

Valid Range: Minimum value of 0. Maximum value of 90.

Required: No

DailyAutomaticBackupStartTime

A recurring daily time, in the format HH:MM. HH is the zero-padded hour of the day (0-23), and MM is the zero-padded minute of the hour. For example, 05:00 specifies 5 AM daily.

Type: String

Length Constraints: Fixed length of 5.

Pattern: ^([01]\d|2[0-3]):?([0-5]\d)$

Required: No

DiskIopsConfiguration

The SSD IOPS configuration for the FSx for ONTAP file system.

Type: DiskIopsConfiguration object

Required: No

EndpointIpAddressRange

(Multi-AZ only) Specifies the IP address range in which the endpoints to access your file system will be created. By default in the Amazon FSx API, Amazon FSx selects an unused IP address range for you from the 198.19.* range. By default in the Amazon FSx console, Amazon FSx chooses the last 64 IP addresses from the VPC’s primary CIDR range to use as the endpoint IP address range for the file system. You can have overlapping endpoint IP addresses for file systems deployed in the same VPC/route tables, as long as they don't overlap with any subnet.

Type: String

Length Constraints: Minimum length of 9. Maximum length of 17.

Pattern: ^[^\u0000\u0085\u2028\u2029\r\n]{9,17}$

Required: No

FsxAdminPassword

The ONTAP administrative password for the fsxadmin user with which you administer your file system using the NetApp ONTAP CLI and REST API.

Type: String

Length Constraints: Minimum length of 8. Maximum length of 50.

Pattern: ^[^\u0000\u0085\u2028\u2029\r\n]{8,50}$

Required: No

HAPairs

Specifies how many high-availability (HA) pairs of file servers will power your file system. Scale-up file systems are powered by 1 HA pair. The default value is 1. FSx for ONTAP scale-out file systems are powered by up to 12 HA pairs. The value of this property affects the values of StorageCapacity, Iops, and ThroughputCapacity. For more information, see High-availability (HA) pairs in the FSx for ONTAP user guide.

Amazon FSx responds with an HTTP status code 400 (Bad Request) for the following conditions:

  • The value of HAPairs is less than 1 or greater than 12.

  • The value of HAPairs is greater than 1 and the value of DeploymentType is SINGLE_AZ_1 or MULTI_AZ_1.

Type: Integer

Valid Range: Minimum value of 1. Maximum value of 12.

Required: No

PreferredSubnetId

Required when DeploymentType is set to MULTI_AZ_1. This specifies the subnet in which you want the preferred file server to be located.

Type: String

Length Constraints: Minimum length of 15. Maximum length of 24.

Pattern: ^(subnet-[0-9a-f]{8,})$

Required: No

RouteTableIds

(Multi-AZ only) Specifies the route tables in which Amazon FSx creates the rules for routing traffic to the correct file server. You should specify all virtual private cloud (VPC) route tables associated with the subnets in which your clients are located. By default, Amazon FSx selects your VPC's default route table.

Note

Amazon FSx manages these route tables for Multi-AZ file systems using tag-based authentication. These route tables are tagged with Key: AmazonFSx; Value: ManagedByAmazonFSx. When creating FSx for ONTAP Multi-AZ file systems using Amazon CloudFormation we recommend that you add the Key: AmazonFSx; Value: ManagedByAmazonFSx tag manually.

Type: Array of strings

Array Members: Maximum number of 50 items.

Length Constraints: Minimum length of 12. Maximum length of 21.

Pattern: ^(rtb-[0-9a-f]{8,})$

Required: No

ThroughputCapacity

Sets the throughput capacity for the file system that you're creating in megabytes per second (MBps). For more information, see Managing throughput capacity in the FSx for ONTAP User Guide.

Amazon FSx responds with an HTTP status code 400 (Bad Request) for the following conditions:

  • The value of ThroughputCapacity and ThroughputCapacityPerHAPair are not the same value.

  • The value of ThroughputCapacity when divided by the value of HAPairs is outside of the valid range for ThroughputCapacity.

Type: Integer

Valid Range: Minimum value of 8. Maximum value of 100000.

Required: No

ThroughputCapacityPerHAPair

Use to choose the throughput capacity per HA pair, rather than the total throughput for the file system.

You can define either the ThroughputCapacityPerHAPair or the ThroughputCapacity when creating a file system, but not both.

This field and ThroughputCapacity are the same for scale-up file systems powered by one HA pair.

  • For SINGLE_AZ_1 and MULTI_AZ_1 file systems, valid values are 128, 256, 512, 1024, 2048, or 4096 MBps.

  • For SINGLE_AZ_2 file systems, valid values are 3072 or 6144 MBps.

Amazon FSx responds with an HTTP status code 400 (Bad Request) for the following conditions:

  • The value of ThroughputCapacity and ThroughputCapacityPerHAPair are not the same value for file systems with one HA pair.

  • The value of deployment type is SINGLE_AZ_2 and ThroughputCapacity / ThroughputCapacityPerHAPair is a valid HA pair (a value between 2 and 12).

  • The value of ThroughputCapacityPerHAPair is not a valid value.

Type: Integer

Valid Range: Minimum value of 128. Maximum value of 6144.

Required: No

WeeklyMaintenanceStartTime

A recurring weekly time, in the format D:HH:MM.

D is the day of the week, for which 1 represents Monday and 7 represents Sunday. For further details, see the ISO-8601 spec as described on Wikipedia.

HH is the zero-padded hour of the day (0-23), and MM is the zero-padded minute of the hour.

For example, 1:05:00 specifies maintenance at 5 AM Monday.

Type: String

Length Constraints: Fixed length of 7.

Pattern: ^[1-7]:([01]\d|2[0-3]):?([0-5]\d)$

Required: No
