EMC Unity REST API docs

Hello All,

We have a EMC UnityVSA 4.3.1 installed and I am able to access the docs via https:// /apidocs/index.html.

However, I am unable view few types eg. diskGroup.

I get an error:

'The requested URL /apidocs/classes/diskGroup.html was not found on this server.'

Has anyone seen such error?

After browsing through the forum, I did see the 4.2.0 (Dell EMC Unity 4.2.0 REST API new changes) and 4.3.0 (Unity REST API changes in 4.3.0) release changes.  However, I am looking for a complete set of documentation like the one available here (probably the first doc!) - https://community.emc.com/docs/DOC-52469

Can someone point me to the documentation section where I can download the EMC Unity REST API docs as per different versions?

Thanks in advance!

Hi,

could be a bug on the 4.3.1 VSA - on a 4.4 physical Unity I can view the diskGruop.html just fine

may I ask what you planning to use the REST API for ?

are you a customer or partner or 3rd party software developer ?

Currently an updated offline reference guide hasnt been published - I have ask for that for the next version 4.4

Also the UnityVSA 4.4 should be available soon

Thanks for the response, Rainer!

Just FYI - apart from diskGroup, I also couldn't find raidGroup in v4.3.1.

I am part of a 3rd party software development team. We would like to enhance our product by adding support for monitoring capacity and performance metrics of EMC Unity storage system.

For the purpose of this, we would like to support EMC Unity v4.3 and above, as used by our customers.

Is it possible to upload offline version of EMC Unity REST API for v4.3?

Thank you,

Sindhuja

Hello Rainer,

Looks like my reply yesterday is still being verified by 'moderator' !

I am hoping that by replying to this email directly, there wont be any

'moderator' required!..

This was my reply

sorry - the last one created as zip file for offline use was the one on support.emc.com that you found

I will see if I can find a newer one

Hi,

I have an explanation now - the diskGroup and raidGroup properties are only applicable on a phsyical Unity system so they arent included in the API reference on a virtual Unity (VSA)

Awesome!

Going forward, it would be really helpful if you can publish the REST API reference docs as we have new versions.

Thank you, again!
