Doc: add doc of new fcp_template and attach/detach APIs

[dongyanyang]

The doc of CRUD of fcp_template and the attach_volume/detach_volume APIs are missing, need to add them.

[Bischoff]

@dongyanyang thank you for your efforts for documenting.

However, I stumbled on various problems with the documentation of "Attach volume" and subsequent sections.

I report these problems below (one problem per comment).

[Bischoff]

1/7 - In the doc for "Attach volume" and "Detach volume", in the parameters list, one reads:

zvm_fcp  body  list FCP devices list.

however, in the example:

        "zvm_fcp": "1fc5",

This is a string, not a list. I think the example should be instead:

        "zvm_fcp": [ "1fc5" ],

[Bischoff]

2/7 - When I try to run the example for "Attach volume", I get:

HTTP status: 400, body: {"overallRC": 400, "rc": 400, "rs": 400, "modID": 120, "output": "", "errmsg":
 "ValidationError: Validation error: Invalid input for field/attribute target_wwpn. Value:
 0x50050763050b073d. '0x50050763050b073d' is not of type 'array'"}

That means that both doc and example are wrong. Doc should be:

target_wwpn  body  list  World Wide Port Numbers, must start with 0x, for example 0x50050763050b073d

(with list instead of string, and plural), and example should be:

       "target_wwpn": [ "0x50050763050b073d" ],

[Bischoff]

3/7 - Also, when running the example for "Attach volume", I get:

HTTP status: 500, body: {"overallRC": 500, "modID": 100, "rc": 500, "rs": 1, "errmsg":
 "Unexpected internal error in ZVM SDK, error: (127.0.0.1:49340) SDK server got unexpected exception:
 KeyError('fcp_template_id')", "output": ""}

The problem goes away when adding a string parameter "fcp_template_id": to the JSON, but this parameter is neither documented nor in the example.

According to source code, fcp_template_id is also a parameter of "Set FCP usage", but I don't see it documented there either.

[Bischoff]

4/7 - The following sections:

7.5.8. Refresh Volume Bootmap Info
PUT /volumes/volume_refresh_bootmap

7.5.9. Get Volume Connector
GET /volumes/conn/{userid}

7.5.10. Get FCP Usage
GET /volumes/fcp/{fcp_id}

7.5.11. Set FCP Usage
PUT /volumes/fcp/{fcp_id}

should not be under section 7.5 Guest(s), but under a new section 7.x Volume(s), because the REST path starts with /volumes instead of /guests.

[Bischoff]

5/7 - In section 7.5.8. Refresh Volume Bootmap Info, one reads:

wwpn   body   string  World Wide Port Name IDs.

I think it should be list instead of string, because the example states:

            "wwpn": ['5005076802100c1a', '5005076802200c1b'],

[Bischoff]

6/7 - Section https://cloudlib4zvm.readthedocs.io/en/latest/restapi.html#get-volume-connector mentions a parameter named reserve. Shouldn't it also mention the following optional parameters?

  fcp_template_id
  storage_provider
  pchid_info

[Bischoff]

7/7 - In "Set FCP usage", one reads:

userid  path  string  Guest userid

According to the source code, it seems that userid should be in body rather than in path.

Hi @Bischoff .
Sorry for the out-of-dated doc. We are discussing on updating it soon
