got it. as the emc's doc about api v2 is very poor (no examples, no base_path, ...) I have looking for jsonpatchops resource and I found a way to make it work : assume we have a consistency group with some volumes inside : #curl --user : -k -X GET "https:// /vplex/v2/distributed_storage/distributed_consistency_groups/ "  { "detach_rule":{ "cluster":"/vplex/v2/clusters/cluster-2","delay":5,"type":"winner"},"operational_status":[{ "summary":"ok","cluster":"cluster-1","details":[]},{ "summary":"ok","cluster":"cluster-2","details":[]}],"read_only":false,"recoverpoint_enabled":false,"storage_at_clusters":["/vplex/v2/clusters/cluster-1","/vplex/v2/clusters/cluster-2"],"virtual_volumes":["/vplex/v2/distributed_storage/distributed_virtual_volumes/ ", "/vplex/v2/distributed_storage/distributed_virtual_volumes/ ", "/vplex/v2/distributed_storage/distributed_virtual_volumes/ ", "/vplex/v2/distributed_storage/distributed_virtual_volumes/ " ], "visibility":[ "/vplex/v2/clusters/cluster-1", "/vplex/v2/clusters/cluster-2" ], "auto_resume_at_loser":true, "recoverpoint":null, "name":"mycg" }  To remove vol1 from mycg I need to do this api call : # curl --user : -k -X PATCH "https:// /vplex/v2/distributed_storage/distributed_consistency_groups/ " -H "Content-Type:application/json-patch+json" --data '[{"op": "remove", "path": "/virtual_volumes", "value": "/vplex/v2/distributed_storage/distributed_virtual_volumes/ "}]'  { "detach_rule":{ "cluster":"/vplex/v2/clusters/cluster-2","delay":5,"type":"winner"},"operational_status":[{ "summary":"ok","cluster":"cluster-1","details":[]},{ "summary":"ok","cluster":"cluster-2","details":[]}],"read_only":false,"recoverpoint_enabled":false,"storage_at_clusters":["/vplex/v2/clusters/cluster-1","/vplex/v2/clusters/cluster-2"],"virtual_volumes":["/vplex/v2/distributed_storage/distributed_virtual_volumes/ ", "/vplex/v2/distributed_storage/distributed_virtual_volumes/ ", "/vplex/v2/distributed_storage/distributed_virtual_volumes/ " ], "visibility":[ "/vplex/v2/clusters/cluster-1", "/vplex/v2/clusters/cluster-2" ], "auto_resume_at_loser":true, "recoverpoint":null, "name":" " }    So, to explain the vplex api doc : you need to use the method "PATCH" of an object  /distributed_storage/distributed_consistency_groups/{name} (where name is the consistency group name). The full uri to use is https:// /vplex/v2/   The header has to bet set to "Content-Type:application/json-patch+json" Then the body : You need to provide a json object (or an array of json objects) with 3 attributes : op : test|add|remove|replace path : this is the object's parameter you want to update (beginning with a /) value: this the value to be tested|removed|added|replaced I've just tested the operation remove on a single attribute. I have not tested array of json operations to test, then add|remove, then test if it's ok.     
Hi, I'm testing vplex api v2 to update a distributed consistency group with python request. There is no call examples into the api v2 guide and I fail to patch my distributed consistency group with an error 400 : {'cause': 'Unexpected parsing exception', 'error_code': 400, 'message': 'Failed to parse JSON for PATCH'} Here is what I doing with my vplex api v2 guide interpretation : uri : https// /vplex/v2/distributed_storage/distributed_consistency_groups/  method : PATCH body : [{'op': 'remove', 'path': 'virtual_volumes', 'value': ['/vplex/v2/distributed_storage/distributed_virtual_volumes/ ']}]  Does anybody try this type of operation on new vplex api ?
