Hi,

I have put my proxmox netapp plugin on github, if someone is interested to use it.

https://github.com/odiso/proxmox-pve-storage-netapp



We are using it in production since 3years without any bug.

templates/snapshot/clone/clone rollback are done on the netapp san through netapp api integration.

Hi,

It looks very interesting, I am installing two Netapp (production and backup) with four HP servers. Is there any easy way to install this plugin? Or a detailed maual for installation? I'm trying to install it but I'm not able to do that.

I downloaded the plugin and tried to compile it and I get a lot of errors. I believed, reading Odiso post, that libpve-storage-perl Package is needed, then I installed libpve-storage-perl_4.0-4_all Package.

And when I try to compile it with make command I get more errors:

I'm not experienced in compiling, thats why I ask for a easier installation procedure.

oh, it seem that I forgot to add a depend on libxml-simple-perl package.

apt-get install libxml-simple-perl

should fix it.

I'll try to push a new prebuild libpve-storage-perl .deb for proxmox 3.4 on the github next week)
 
I don't use it anymore (have migrated all my production to ceph since 10years),

it shouldn't be too difficult to adapt, the proxmox side don't have changed too much. (but yes, I need to be updated)

Not sure about netapp api side.
