Summary

Update properties of an existing IP Interface (LIF) in a NetApp ONTAP cluster, modifying attributes such as enabled state, auto revert setting, failover policy, and service policy.

Inputs

  • Cluster Host (required) — Hostname or IP address of the ONTAP cluster management LIF.
  • Port — HTTPS port number for the ONTAP REST API (default 443).
  • IP Interface (required) — Identifier of the IP interface to update, selectable by UUID or name.
  • Update Fields (required) — Fields to update on the IP interface such as Enabled (boolean), Auto Revert (boolean), Failover Policy (selection), and Service Policy (string).

Output shape

a JSON object representing the updated IP Interface resource or the job details if the update is asynchronous

The update performs a PATCH request to the ONTAP cluster. If the operation returns an asynchronous job, the node waits and returns the completed job details. Errors during update will halt execution unless 'Continue On Fail' is enabled.

Examples

Example 1: Enable an existing IP interface and set its failover policy to 'Local Only'.

Specify cluster credentials, the IP Interface by name, and set Update Fields: Enabled = true, Failover Policy = 'local_only'.
