If I try to use a storage domains object and a list of a storage domain, I get a rather large Java stack trace of the same type as when I have a key named incorrectly or when the request generally contains invalid parameters.
Thanks,
Andrew
I have no experience using JSON myself (I use XML when using REST), however, note that the storage_domain is a list of ids, inside of a storage_domains object. Maybe try to send a request formatted like that?
Juan - any other insights?

Subject: [ovirt-users] Attaching storage to VM via JSON REST
Hi all,
I'm exploring using ovirt's REST APIs to manage VM creation/deletion/etc. I can create the VM, attach an ISO and change boot order, but I'm unable to attach a storage disk to the VM. I send a POST request to /api/vms/<vm uuid>/disks with the structure:
{"storage_domain":
{"name":"am_data",
"id":"6fbee79d-5b71-48c1-b86c-ee9755a46013"
},
"size":"4294967296",
"type":"system",
"interface":"ide",
"format":"raw",
"sparse":"false",
"bootable":"true",
"wipe_after_delete":"false"
}
The response I receive is
{
"reason" : "Operation Failed",
"detail" : "[Cannot add Virtual Machine Disk. Storage Domain doesn't exist.]"
}
For the storage domain, I've tried just the name, just the id, and both with the same results. When I attach storage from the GUI, the disk is created/attached fine, and a GET request for the disks of the VM shows the storage domain as the same as I was attempting to use before.
"storage_domains" : {
"storage_domain" : [ {
"id" : "6fbee79d-5b71-48c1-b86c-ee9755a46013"
} ]
},
Any idea what I might be doing wrong?
Thanks,
Andrew
