Hi All,
I'm working with the REST API and have a question that I haven't been able to
figure out. When destroying a storage domain, it appears that a host is required in the
storage domain. Can this be any host that has access to that domain?
The storage domain returned through the REST api does not have the host populated so
I'm not sure how I would figure out a specific host to put in there other than to just
make sure it's one that can access the domain.

Hey Chris,
The engine uses a host to do pretty much everything. You'll find that you can't
add a data domain to a data center without an active host, either.
The answer to your question, I think, is that you should specify the SPM host in your data
center.

The answer to your question, I think, is that you should specify the SPM host
in your data center.
Thanks for the response. By "SPM host" do you mean the host in the data center
that is tagged as the "master"?

Hey Christopher,
I hope I understand your problem, and I'm not making things more confusing. I mean
that if you log into the administration portal, and select the "Hosts" tab, one
of your hosts in the data center should be labelled "SPM".
I'd say anything labelled "Master", you've found in the storage tab. The
resources in the "Storage" tab aren't really hosts, even if they are hosted.
Storage domains are meant to be understood as abstractions from the actual storage that
back them.
