Create request and response

RESTful API for IBM® Spectrum Control Base Edition uses create requests for object creation.

You can create an object by issuing the POST command followed by request object. The request must contain a set of parameters required for object creation.

For example, POST /api/v1/interfaces entered with the parameters detailed below, creates an interface on the specified storage system module.
name aaab
address 3.3.3.3
netmask 255.255.255.0
gateway 3.3.3.254
array pu16
module 1:Module:1
ports 1
The response to the POST request is as follows:
  • OK, followed by the new object, if the task is completed successfully.
  • An error message, detailing a reason for the failed request, as illustrated below.
{
    "detail": "One of the physical ports specified is already assigned to an IP Interface"
}
