Parameters

Parameter			Choices/Defaults	Comments
aggr_list list / elements=string added in 2.8.0 of netapp.ontap				an array of names of aggregates to be used for FlexGroup constituents.
aggr_list_multiplier integer added in 2.8.0 of netapp.ontap				The number of times to iterate over the aggregates listed with the aggr_list parameter when creating a FlexGroup.
aggregate_name string				The name of the aggregate the flexvol should exist on. Cannot be set when using the na_application_template option.
atime_update boolean added in 2.8.0 of netapp.ontap			no yes	This is an advanced option, the default is True. If false, prevent the update of inode access times when a file is read. This value is useful for volumes with extremely high read traffic, since it prevents writes to the inode file for the volume from contending with reads from other files. This field should be used carefully. That is, use this field when you know in advance that the correct access time for inodes will not be needed for files on that volume.
auto_provision_as string added in 2.8.0 of netapp.ontap			flexgroup	Automatically provision a FlexGroup volume.
auto_remap_luns boolean added in 20.6.0 of netapp.ontap			no yes	Flag to control automatic map of LUNs.
cert_filepath string added in 20.6.0 of netapp.ontap				path to SSL client cert file (.pem). not supported with python 2.6.
check_interval integer added in 20.6.0 of netapp.ontap			Default: 30	The amount of time in seconds to wait between checks of a volume to see if it has moved successfully.
comment string added in 2.9.0 of netapp.ontap				Sets a comment associated with the volume.
compression boolean added in 20.12.0 of netapp.ontap			no yes	Whether to enable compression for the volume (HDD and Flash Pool aggregates). If this option is not present, it is automatically set to true if inline_compression is true.
cutover_action string added in 20.5.0 of netapp.ontap			abort_on_failure defer_on_failure force wait	Specifies the action to be taken for cutover. Possible values are 'abort_on_failure', 'defer_on_failure', 'force' and 'wait'. Default is 'defer_on_failure'.
efficiency_policy string added in 2.7.0 of netapp.ontap				Allows a storage efficiency policy to be set on volume creation.

feature_flags dictionary added in 20.5.0 of netapp.ontap				Enable or disable a new feature. This can be used to enable an experimental feature or disable a new feature that breaks backward compatibility. Supported keys and values are subject to change without notice. Unknown keys are ignored.
force_restore boolean added in 20.6.0 of netapp.ontap			no yes	If this field is set to "true", the Snapshot copy is restored even if the volume has one or more newer Snapshot copies which are currently used as reference Snapshot copy by SnapMirror. If a restore is done in this situation, this will cause future SnapMirror transfers to fail. Option should only be used along with snapshot_restore.
force_unmap_luns boolean added in 20.6.0 of netapp.ontap			no yes	Flag to control automatic unmap of LUNs.

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			no ← yes	Enable and disable https. Ignored when using REST as only https is supported. Ignored when using SSL certificate authentication as it requires SSL.
inline_compression boolean added in 20.12.0 of netapp.ontap			no yes	Whether to enable inline compression for the volume (HDD and Flash Pool aggregates, AFF platforms).
is_infinite boolean			no ← yes	Set True if the volume is an Infinite Volume. Deleting an infinite volume is asynchronous.

nvfail_enabled boolean added in 2.9.0 of netapp.ontap			no yes	If true, the controller performs additional work at boot and takeover times if it finds that there has been any potential data loss in the volume's constituents due to an NVRAM failure. The volume's constituents would be put in a special state called 'in-nvfailed-state' such that protocol access is blocked. This will cause the client applications to crash and thus prevent access to stale data. To get out of this situation, the admin needs to manually clear the 'in-nvfailed-state' on the volume's constituents.
ontapi integer				The ontap api version to use
password string				Password for the specified user. aliases: pass
percent_snapshot_space integer				Amount of space reserved for snapshot copies of the volume.
preserve_lun_ids boolean added in 20.6.0 of netapp.ontap			no yes	If this field is set to "true", LUNs in the volume being restored will remain mapped and their identities preserved such that host connectivity will not be disrupted during the restore operation. I/O's to the LUN will be fenced during the restore operation by placing the LUNs in an unavailable state. Once the restore operation has completed, hosts will be able to resume I/O access to the LUNs. Option should only be used along with snapshot_restore.
qos_adaptive_policy_group string added in 2.9.0 of netapp.ontap				Specifies a QoS adaptive policy group to be set on volume.
qos_policy_group string added in 2.9.0 of netapp.ontap				Specifies a QoS policy group to be set on volume.
size integer				The size of the volume in (size_unit). Required when state=present.
size_change_threshold integer added in 20.12.0 of netapp.ontap			Default: 10	Percentage in size change to trigger a resize. When this parameter is greater than 0, a difference in size between what is expected and what is configured is ignored if it is below the threshold. For instance, the nas application allocates a larger size than specified to account for overhead. Set this to 0 for an exact match.
size_unit string			bytes b kb mb gb ← tb pb eb zb yb	The unit used to interpret the size parameter.
sizing_method string added in 20.12.0 of netapp.ontap			add_new_resources use_existing_resources	Represents the method to modify the size of a FlexGroup. use_existing_resources - Increases or decreases the size of the FlexGroup by increasing or decreasing the size of the current FlexGroup resources. add_new_resources - Increases the size of the FlexGroup by adding new resources. This is limited to two new resources per available aggregate. This is only supported if REST is enabled (ONTAP 9.6 or later) and only for FlexGroups. ONTAP defaults to use_existing_resources.
snapdir_access boolean added in 2.8.0 of netapp.ontap			no yes	This is an advanced option, the default is False. Enable the visible '.snapshot' directory that is normally present at system internal mount points. This value also turns on access to all other '.snapshot' directories in the volume.
snapshot_auto_delete dictionary added in 20.4.0 of netapp.ontap				A dictionary for the auto delete options and values. Supported options include 'state', 'commitment', 'trigger', 'target_free_space', 'delete_order', 'defer_delete', 'prefix', 'destroy_list'. Option 'state' determines if the snapshot autodelete is currently enabled for the volume. Possible values are 'on' and 'off'. Option 'commitment' determines the snapshots which snapshot autodelete is allowed to delete to get back space. Possible values are 'try', 'disrupt' and 'destroy'. Option 'trigger' determines the condition which starts the automatic deletion of snapshots. Possible values are 'volume', 'snap_reserve' and DEPRECATED 'space_reserve'. Option 'target_free_space' determines when snapshot autodelete should stop deleting snapshots. Depending on the trigger, snapshots are deleted till we reach the target free space percentage. Accepts int type. Option 'delete_order' determines if the oldest or newest snapshot is deleted first. Possible values are 'newest_first' and 'oldest_first'. Option 'defer_delete' determines which kind of snapshots to delete in the end. Possible values are 'scheduled', 'user_created', 'prefix' and 'none'. Option 'prefix' can be set to provide the prefix string for the 'prefix' value of the 'defer_delete' option. The prefix string length can be 15 char long. Option 'destroy_list' is a comma seperated list of services which can be destroyed if the snapshot backing that service is deleted. For 7-mode, the possible values for this option are a combination of 'lun_clone', 'vol_clone', 'cifs_share', 'file_clone' or 'none'. For cluster-mode, the possible values for this option are a combination of 'lun_clone,file_clone' (for LUN clone and/or file clone), 'lun_clone,sfsr' (for LUN clone and/or sfsr), 'vol_clone', 'cifs_share', or 'none'.
snapshot_policy string added in 2.8.0 of netapp.ontap				The name of the snapshot policy. The default policy name is 'default'. If present, this will set the protection_type when using nas_application_template.
snapshot_restore string added in 20.6.0 of netapp.ontap				Name of snapshot to restore from. Not supported on Infinite Volume.
space_guarantee string			none file volume	Space guarantee style for the volume.
space_slo string added in 2.9.0 of netapp.ontap			none thick semi-thick	Specifies the space SLO type for the volume. The space SLO type is the Service Level Objective for space management for the volume. The space SLO value is used to enforce existing volume settings so that sufficient space is set aside on the aggregate to meet the space SLO. This parameter is not supported on Infinite Volumes.
state string			present ← absent	Whether the specified volume should exist or not.
tiering_policy string added in 2.9.0 of netapp.ontap			snapshot-only auto backup none all	The tiering policy that is to be associated with the volume. This policy decides whether the blocks of a volume will be tiered to the capacity tier. snapshot-only policy allows tiering of only the volume snapshot copies not associated with the active file system. auto policy allows tiering of both snapshot and active file system user data to the capacity tier. backup policy on DP volumes allows all transferred user data blocks to start in the capacity tier. all is the REST equivalent for backup. When set to none, the Volume blocks will not be tiered to the capacity tier. If no value specified, the volume is assigned snapshot only by default. Requires ONTAP 9.4 or later.
time_out integer added in 2.8.0 of netapp.ontap			Default: 180	time to wait for Flexgroup creation, modification, or deletion in seconds. Error out if task is not completed in defined time. if 0, the request is asynchronous. default is set to 3 minutes.
type string				The volume type, either read-write (RW) or data-protection (DP).
unix_permissions string added in 2.8.0 of netapp.ontap				Unix permission bits in octal or symbolic format. For example, 0 is equivalent to ------------, 777 is equivalent to ---rwxrwxrwx,both formats are accepted. The valid octal value ranges between 0 and 777 inclusive.
use_rest string			Default: "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
user_id integer added in 20.1.0 of netapp.ontap				The UNIX user ID for the volume. The default value is 0 ('root').
username string				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/. Two authentication methods are supported 1. basic authentication, using username and password, 2. SSL certificate authentication, using a ssl client cert file, and optionally a private key file. To use a certificate, the certificate must have been installed in the ONTAP cluster, and cert authentication must have been enabled. aliases: user
validate_certs boolean			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_security_style string			mixed ntfs unified unix	The security style associated with this volume.
vserver string / required				Name of the vserver to use.
vserver_dr_protection string added in 2.9.0 of netapp.ontap			protected unprotected	Specifies the protection type for the volume in a Vserver DR setup.
wait_for_completion boolean added in 2.8.0 of netapp.ontap			no ← yes	Set this parameter to 'true' for synchronous execution during create (wait until volume status is online) Set this parameter to 'false' for asynchronous execution For asynchronous, execution exits as soon as the request is sent, without checking volume status
