Unity User Quota Module dellemc_unity_user_quota Issues

Hi all,

I am having multiple issues with the Unity dellemc_unity_user_quota module and not sure what to do. The issues that I am having are:

  1. user_type: "UID" does not work
  2. Idempotency does not seem to work
  3. Cannot modify a User Quota
  4. Cannot delete a User Quota

1. user_type: "UID"

The documentation is misleading.  User Type seems to only take 2 options: Windows / Unix.  However, one of the examples shows UID as an option.  When I run from the GUI I am able to put in UID.  But when I try this with either user_type = to "UID" or "Unix" I am not able to use the "uid" parameter.  I get an error message.

2. Idempotency not working

When I run the same create command twice I get an error message saying that the User Quota already exists as opposed to it just working

3. Modify doesn't work

When I try to modify an already existing User Quota I get a message saying that he User Quota already exists.

4. Delete doesn't work

When I try to delete a User Quota it seems to work.  I don't get any error messages. But the User Quota still exists after the delete.

thanks for your help.

glenn.

Hi @gsdavis ,

Thanks for your feedback. We went through the scenarios that you mentioned above.

We validated each of those scenarios, Please see my response as below:

  • Regarding the example of the ‘user quota for filesystem’ looks to be a valid concern, we acknowledge that it needs a correction. ‘user_type’ need not be mentioned here, we can directly pass ‘uid’.
  • We validated idempotency scenarios also for create/modify/delete operations and they are working as expected
  • We validated modify scenario also and its working as expected
  • Delete also worked as expected and we also checked for entry of the deleted quota in unisphere and did not find the record

The examples provided in the module are pretty much correct (except the first two which have documentation issue). I hereby request you to please follow those examples and build your use cases. In case you need more example pls feel free to let us know specific use cases.

Hope that helps.

Thanks

Rajendra

I think I understand the confusion.
We do need examples of how to do a Create / Update / Delete, using Windows UserName and Domain.

I understand the examples you provided work because they use UID.  However, we need to be able to do this with UserNames.

thanks.

glenn.
