1. Abstract

The Swordfish Scalable Storage Management API ("Swordfish") defines a RESTful interface and a standardized data model to provide a scalable, customer-centric interface for managing storage and related data services. It extends the Redfish Scalable Platforms Management API Specification (DSP0266) from the DMTF.

2. Scope

Swordfish defines a comprehensive, RESTful API for storage management that addresses block storage, file systems, object storage, and storage network infrastructure. It is centered around common operational and business concerns of storage management, including:

Swordfish's storage model is built around well-defined classes of service, which provide a means to map high-level business goals and objectives to specific, storage-based actions and requirements, in a clear and consistent way that can be applied uniformly across a broad spectrum of storage configurations and storage types (e.g., block storage, file systems, object stores). Common storage management functionality covered by class of service includes snapshots, replication, mapping and masking, and provisioning.

The Redfish specification provides the protocols and a core set of data models and behaviors for the management of systems. It defines the elements and behaviors that are mandatory for all Redfish implementations. Additionally it defines additional elements and behaviors that can be chosen by system vendors or manufacturers. The specifications also defines points at which OEM (system vendor) extensions can be provided by a given implementation. The specifications specifies normative requirements for Redfish Services and associated materials, such as Redfish Schema files. The Redfish specifications does not set requirements for Redfish clients, but will indicate what a Redfish client should do in order to access and utilize a Redfish Service successfully and effectively.

The Swordfish specification defines additional data models and behaviors for the management of storage systems and storage infrastructure. A Swordfish implementation shall conform to all requirements specified in the Redfish specifications.

Swordfish is suitable for a wide range of storage, from small-scale object drives, integrated RAID cards or RBODs providing storage services, to external disk arrays or file servers, to infrastructure providing storage services for converged, hyperscale and large scale cloud environments.

This document defines the Swordfish Scalable Storage Management API.

5. Swordfish Overview

5.1. Introduction

The Swordfish Scalable Storage Management API ("Swordfish") defines a RESTful interface and a standardized data model to provide a scalable, customer-centric interface for managing storage and related data services. It extends the Redfish Scalable Platforms Management API Specification (DSP0266) from the DMTF.

5.2. Relation to Redfish

The Swordfish service interface extends the Redfish service interface. As such, a Swordfish service is a Redfish service and includes all required elements of the Redfish model.

Storage systems managed by the Swordfish storage service are located in the ServiceRoot (and ServiceContainer) via the StorageSystems resource collection. They are modeled using Redfish ComputerSystems. The physical infrastructure is modeled using Redfish Chassis.

Each Swordfish StorageService is located in the ServiceRoot (and ServiceContainer) via the StorageServices resource collection. All Swordfish defined instances are located through StorageService intances. A Swordfish management client may focus entirely on entities defined by the Swordfish schema.

The combined Redfish and Swordfish models defines information requirements and constraints on the values that are used as input or output of the operations supported by the Swordfish interface. The Swordfish interface relies on the operations specified by the OData REST protocol (#normative-references). Additional operations (known as Actions) are also defined by the model. The information content is defined by a schema specified using the Common Schema Definition Language (CSDL) (#normative-references) defined by the OData organization within OASIS (https://www.oasis-open.org/).

Each Swordfish service is accessed via well known URLs on the system supporting the Swordfish Service. Since Swordfish is an extension of Redfish, these URLs are the same as for accessing the Redfish defined aspects of the service.

The ServiceRoot and ServiceContainer entities

Overview

A GET of /redfish/v1 will return the ServiceRoot entity. A GET of /redfish/v1/odata will return the ServiceContainer instances that represents the OData service document. Each of these instances provides links to the remainder of the system.

The following are the elements utilized for Swordfish management.

The Systems resource collection

A resource collection that references a set of ComputerSystem resources that each represents a general purpose application server. Each ComputerSystem resource will have an entry with the value of "ApplicationServer" in its HostingRoles property. A particular ComputerSystem resource can be in both the StorageSystems collection and the Systems collection.

The Chassis resource collection

A resource collection that references a set of Chassis resources. Each Chassis resource represents physical containers, (i.e. sheet-metal confined spaces and logical zones like racks, enclosures, chassis and all other containers). Subsystems (like sensors), which operate outside of a system's data plane (meaning the resources are not accessible to software running on the system) are linked either directly or indirectly through this resource.

The StorageSystems resource collection

A reference to a ComputerSystemCollection with members of type ComputerSystem that support storage services. These ComputerSystem resources represent systems that support Swordfish storage management services. They will have an entry with the value of "StorageServer" in their HostingRoles property.A resource collection that references a set of ComputerSystem resources that each represents a storage server. Each ComputerSystem resource will have an entry with the value of "StorageServer" in its HostingRoles property. A particular ComputerSystem resource can be a member of both the StorageSystems resource collection and the Systems resource collection.

The StorageServices resource collection

A reference to a StorageServiceCollection with members that are of type StorageService. A resource collection that references a set of StorageService resources. Each StorageService resource represents the resources and behaviors supported by that storage service.

5.3. Storage Services

The StorageService resource

The storage service is hosted on a storage system and exposes logical storage, associated resources and related functionality. Storage service resources can be found in the service root or service container via the StorageServices resource collection.

The following are the principal properties of StorageService that point to resources managed or defined by the storage service:

The following properties each include a set of attributes that each describe a range of capabilities that the storage service can support for a particular kind of service.

In each of the above, not all combinations of attribute values are likely to be supported by the storage service.

Known supported combinations of attribute values are used to construct entries in the LinesOfService array property. Not all attributes of a line of service entry need be specified (i.e. some may be Null). If an attribute has no value, the storage service may choose any supported values when provisioning for that entry. Otherwise, the line of service attribute values specifies the kind or level of service to be provided.

5.4. The ClassOfService resource

A class of service represents a choice of utility or warranty offered to customers by a service. (ITIL uses the term service option. See the Normative References.)

Each ClassOfService resource is a uniquely named description of the characteristics of one choice of utility or warranty for a service. Each ClassOfService is a description of the kind and quality of service to provide and is not intended to describe how the service provides that service.

Each ClassOfService is defined by an aggregation of lines of service. Supported lines of service are listed in the corresponding capabilities attributes of the storage service, (see above).

Currently defined lines of service are:

Some advertised ClassOfService resources are created by the service implementation. These are generally not changeable and are intrinsic to the implementation.

A service may support creation or modification of ClassOfService resources. All must be consistent with the capabilities of the service.

5.5. The Endpoint resource

Endpoints represent one end of a protocol specific connection that supports sending or receiving messages according to a particular protocol.

5.6. The Endpoint Collection resource

The Endpoint Group is resource collection that references a set of Endpoint resources.

5.7. The EndpointGroup resource

The EndpointGroup is a resource that represents a set of Endpoint resources that have the same management characteristics and which will all have the same access state.

5.8. The EndpointGroupCollection resource

The EndpointGroupCollection is resource collection that references a set of EndpointGroup resources.

5.9. The StorageGroup resource

StorageGroups represent a set of volumes that are managed as a group with the same consistency requirements. The volumes of a storage group are collectively exposed or hidden to a set of clients.

The set of volumes is specified by the Volumes attribute, which is a resource collection that references volumes.

The set of client endpoints to which the volumes can be exposed is specified by the ClientEndpointGroupsattribute. The ClientEndpointGroup resource specifies a collection of EndpointGroup resources.

The set of server endpoints to which the volumes can be exposed is specified by the ServerEndpointGroupsattribute. The ServerEndpointGroup resource specifies a collection of EndpointGroup resources.

5.10. The StoragePool resource

The StoragePool resource represents unassigned storage capacity that can be used to produce storage volumes or other storage pools, which conform to one or more classes of service.

The following are the principal properties of StoragePool that are used to identify resources provisioned or supported by the storage pool:

5.11. The Volume resource

Volume resource represents a block-addressable container of storage, sometimes referred to as a "Logical Unit", "LU", "LUN", or "StorageVolume" in the storage industry. Volumes optionally adhere to a ClassOfService, which defines added functionality. Examples include:

5.12. The FileSystem resource

This FileSystem resource represents a file system. File systems represent file-addressable capacity that are conformant to a ClassOfService. Each FileSystem may contain a collection of FileShares that can be presented to hosts.

6. Data model

6.1. Swordfish extensions to Redfish

Overview

Redfish has added two properties to the ServiceRoot that provide access to Swordfish resources.

The first is StorageSystems. This property references a collection of ComputerSystem resources that each support Swordfish functionality. Each such ComputerSystem shall have:

The second is StorageServices. This property references a collection of StorageService resources. It provides the client an efficient means to search across all StorageService resources, regardless of which ComputerSystem is supporting the service.

Swordfish and Redfish specific OEM or vendor extensions

The Swordfish and Redfish models are extended by subclassing the OEM ComplexTypes that are defined in the Swordfish and Redfish schemas.

OData specific OEM or vendor extensions

In addition to extending the Redfish model as described above. An OEM may extend the Redfish ServiceContainer by defining a new EntityContainer that extends the ServiceContainer found in the Redfish ServiceRoot_v1.xml file, (see OData EntityContainer).

Note: This has the same semantics as subclassing in a typical object oriented environment.

An OEM extended implementation of the Swordfish service would access OEM extensions to EntityContainer via the service entry-point /redfish/v1/odata.

6.2. Entity Sets

The Swordfish model does not currently expose any explicitly defined entity sets. OData specifies that an entity set is defined for each NavigationProperty that is defined as a collection and that has the ContainsTarget attribute set to true. In all other cases, Swordfish assumes that an entity set is defined globally within the implementation for each entity type. This is effectively the same as if the entity sets were explicitly defined in the ServiceRoot entity container.

6.3. Addressing entities within a collection

An instance (entity) of an EntityType is uniquely identified within its entity set by its key. The URI for the reference may specify the key using one of two general strategies

  1. OData recommends specifying the key value within parenthesis following the path segment that identifies the referencing entity set. (See clause "Canonical URL" in in OData)

  2. Redfish common practice is to use an alternative form that adds a path segment having the value of the key following the path segment that identifies the referencing collection. (See clause "Alternate Key-as-Segment Syntax" in OData.)

A Swordfish implementation shall support both strategies.

6.4. Addressing members of a ResourceCollection

Redfish specifies that subclasses of ResourceCollection shall include a Members collection property (See clause "Collection resource response" in DSP0266)

Redfish allows a POST request to a ResourceCollection to be equivalent to the same POST request to the Members property of that ResourceCollection.
For a particular ResourceCollection, if a Swordfish implementation supports either form, it shall support both.

It is common practice in Redfish to also eliminate the Members property from any request URI that navigates through a type hierarchy that includes a Member within a ResourceCollection. Care should be taken when defining and using a ResourceCollection subclass to not introduce ambiguities when an explicit reference to a Members property is dropped from a request URI.

6.5. Schema repository

The primary online source for the Swordfish schema shall be co-located on the DMTF schema site with the Redfish schema: http://redfish.dmtf.org/schemas/swordfish Developers may also download the schema as part of the Swordfish bundle from snia.org (refer to snia.org/swordfish for pointers to the bundle locations).

Implementations should refer either to the versions available on the dmtf.org site or to locally provided instances of the schema.

6.6. Referencing other schemas

Swordfish directly reference the following Redfish schemas. - Chassis - ChassisCollection - ComputerSystem - ComputerSystemCollection - Drive - Endpoint - EthernetInterface - EventService - Location - RedfishExtensions - Redundancy - ResourceTask - Schedule - ServiceContainer - ServiceRoot

Other Redfish schema may be added by inference or directly to implementations. Examples are available in the Swordfish mockups.

7. Schema Considerations

7.1. Schema Introduction and Overview

A complete Swordfish implementation includes a Redfish-defined Service Root, is instantiated upon a StorageSystem/ComputerSystem, and runs on a Redfish Chassis. At the same time, a storage client may focus entirely on the storage schema instantiations and never interact with the Redfish portion of an implementation.

Swordfish is defined in terms of schema extended from Redfish which are defined below. This section provides additional definition and context for these schema.

7.2. Common schema attributes

The following table lists common schema attributes used in the definition of Swordfish, for details see CSDL

Table 5: Schema attributes
Name Applies to Description
Abstract ComplexType, EntityType If true, the entity may not be instantiated
BaseType ComplexType, EntityType Names an inherited element.
DefaultValue Property The value of a property if not explicitly set
Name All The name of the schema element
Nullable NavigationProperty, Property If false, the qualified property shall have a value. The default value is true. A navigation property whose Type attribute specifies a collection shall not specify Nullable=false, as the collection always exists, but may just be empty. Note: Null is not itself a value, but is an indication of no value.
Type Property The type of the element

7.3. Default values and NULLABLE attributes

The interaction of Nullable and DefaultValue needs to be clearly understood by both implementers and client developers. The possible combinations of are summarized in Table 6. The table contains:

Table 6: Default and Nullable Interaction

Nullable DefaultValue Client Value
T T T C
T T F D
T F T C
T F F I or Null
F T T C
F T F D
F F T C
F F F I or Error

7.4. Common schema annotations

The following table lists common annotation used in the definition of Swordfish, for details see OData Capabilities Vocabulary, OData Core Vocabulary, OData Measures Vocabulary, and Redfish Extensions,

Table 7: Schema annotations

Maximum Parameter, Property Maximum value that an integer property or parameter may have
Minimum Parameter, Property Minimum value that an integer property or parameter may have
Pattern Parameter, Property Specifies a pattern that the value shall match
Permissions NavigationProperty, Property Access permission for the property.
Required NavigationProperty, Property If true, property is required to be supported by the service. The default is optional.
RequiredIOnCreate NavigationProperty, Property If true, property is required on creation
Unit Property The unit of measure for the value.

7.5. Schema repository

The primary online source for the Swordfish schema shall be co-located on the DMTF schema site with the Redfish schema: http://redfish.dmtf.org/schemas/swordfish Developers may also download the schema as part of the Swordfish bundle from snia.org (refer to snia.org/swordfish for pointers to the bundle locations).

Implementations should refer either to the versions available on the dmtf.org site or to locally provided instances of the schema.

7.6. Referencing other schemas

Swordfish directly reference the following Redfish schemas. - Chassis - ChassisCollection - ComputerSystem - ComputerSystemCollection - Drive - Endpoint - EthernetInterface - EventService - Location - RedfishExtensions - Redundancy - ResourceTask - Schedule - ServiceContainer - ServiceRoot

Other Redfish schema may be added by inference or directly to implementations. Examples are available in the Swordfish mockups.

8. Implementation requirements

8.1. Security

This document generally adheres to the security requirements defined in the Redfish Specification. It extends the Redfish security model in one important way:

8.2. General constraints

The Swordfish service interface extends the Redfish service interface. As such, a Swordfish service is a Redfish service and all required elements of the Redfish model shall be present in a Swordfish model.

Swordfish functionality shall not conflict with any previously defined Redfish functionality but it may add to or extend it, and it may add additional constraints on Redfish functionality.

Additionally, any functionality desired in a Swordfish implementation that is specified in Redfish shall follow the requirements as specified in the Redfish specification.

8.3. Discovering Swordfish resources

Each Swordfish implementation supports the following well-known URLs, as defined in Redfish. Specifically:

Note: Since the ServiceContainer is required to return an @odata.context value of /redfish/v1, all other elements accessed via it will be the same elements found via the ServiceRoot.

Note: A Swordfish service is a Redfish service with extensions to support storage management. No additional service entry-points are necessary.

Both the ServiceRoot and ServiceContainer contain a resource collection named Systems that lists ComputerSystem instances. A ComputerSystem instance that supports Swordfish defined services will have a value of "StorageServer" in an entry of its HostingRoles property.

The ServiceContainer additionally has a Service attribute that references the ServiceRoot resource.

Regardless of starting point, the property values of the ServiceRoot instance enable navigation to all other resources exposed by the Swordfish service.

8.4. ClassOfService requirements

Each ClassOfService shall include at least one line of service. The providing server shall assure that the line of service values of a ClassOfService collectively represent a supported choice of service.

8.5. StorageSystems requirements

This property of the ServiceRoot references a collection of ComputerSystem resources that each support Swordfish functionality. Each ComputerSystem included in the StorageSystems entry in the ServiceRoot shall have:

8.6. Entity Sets

The Swordfish model does not currently expose any explicitly defined entity sets. OData specifies that an entity set is defined for each NavigationProperty that is defined as a collection and that has the ContainsTarget attribute set to true. In all other cases, Swordfish assumes that an entity set is defined globally within the implementation for each entity type. This is effectively the same as if the entity sets were explicitly defined in the ServiceRoot entity container.

8.7. Addressing entities within a collection

An instance (entity) of an EntityType is uniquely identified within its entity set by its key. The URI for the reference may specify the key using one of two general strategies

  1. OData recommends specifying the key value within parenthesis following the path segment that identifies the referencing entity set. (See clause "Canonical URL" in in OData)

  2. Redfish common practice is to use an alternative form that adds a path segment having the value of the key following the path segment that identifies the referencing collection. (See clause "Alternate Key-as-Segment Syntax" in OData.)

A Swordfish implementation shall support both strategies.

8.8. Addressing members of a ResourceCollection

Redfish specifies that subclasses of ResourceCollection shall include a Members collection property (See clause "Collection resource response" in DSP0266)

Redfish allows a POST request to a ResourceCollection to be equivalent to the same POST request to the Members property of that ResourceCollection. For a particular ResourceCollection, if a Swordfish implementation supports either form, it shall support both.

It is common practice in Redfish to also eliminate the Members property from any request URI that navigates through a type hierarchy that includes a Member within a ResourceCollection. Care should be taken when defining and using a ResourceCollection subclass to not introduce ambiguities when an explicit reference to a Members property is dropped from a request URI.

9. Swordfish type definitions

9.1. Overview

The following sections define the schema and type definitions that make up a Swordfish implementation. Each data type or entity within the schema includes a description that defines its implementation requirements and their interaction.

An EndpointGroup represents a collection of endpoints that are managed as a unit. By grouping together a collection of Endpoints, the EndpointGroup allows a collection of entities from differing sources or hosts to be manipulated uniformly and efficiently.

For any given EndpointGroup, all of its endpoints act exclusively as either server endpoints or client endpoints, as indicated by the value of the EndpointType property. Similarly, each Endpoint within a group has the same AccessState.

A server or client may define multiple EndpointGroup entities that access the same set of resources or functionality. A group may be designated as preferred, which signifies that access should be directed through its members in preference to the Endpoints listed in other EndpointGroups. If the value of EndpointType is Server, an EndpointGroup entity can be used to represent target port group as defined by SCSI. In that mode, the value of the TargetEndpointGroupIdentifier should correspond to the target port group number. (See clause "Device Identification VPD page" as defined in the SCSI Primary Commands specification.)

Aborted This enumeration literal shall indicate that the copy operation is aborted with the Abort operation. The Resync Replica operation can be used to restart the copy operation.
Broken This enumeration literal shall indicate that the relationship is non-functional due to errors in the source, the target, the path between the two or space constraints.
Failedover This enumeration literal shall indicate that the reads and writes are sent to the target element. The source element may not be reachable.
Fractured This enumeration literal shall indicate that the Target is split from the source. The target may not be consistent.
Inactive This enumeration literal shall indicate that data flow has stopped, writes to source element shall not be sent to target element.
Initialized This enumeration literal shall indicate that the link to enable replication is established and source/replica elements are associated, but the data flow has not started.
Invalid This enumeration literal shall indicate that the storage server is unable to determine the state of the replication relationship, for example, after the connection is restored; however, either source or target elements have an unknown status.
Mixed This enumeration literal shall indicate the ReplicaState of GroupSynchronized. The value indicates the StorageSynchronized relationships of the elements in the group have different ReplicaState values.
Partitioned This enumeration literal shall indicate that the state of replication relationship can not be determined, for example, due to a connection problem.
Prepared This enumeration literal shall indicate that initialization is completed, however, the data flow has not started.
Restored This enumeration literal shall indicate that the source element was restored from the target element.
Skewed This enumeration literal shall indicate that the target has been modified and is no longer synchronized with the source element or the point-in-time view.
Split This enumeration literal shall indicate that the target element was gracefully (or systematically) split from its source element -- consistency shall be guaranteed.
Suspended This enumeration literal shall indicate that the data flow between the source and target elements has stopped. Writes to source element shall be held until the relationship is Resumed.
Synchronized This enumeration literal shall indicate that for Mirror, Snapshot, or Clone replication, the target represents a copy of the source.
Unsynchronized This enumeration literal shall indicate that not all the source element data has been copied to the target element.

ReplicaType:

string Description
Clone This enumeration literal shall indicate that replication shall create a point in time, full copy the source.
Mirror This enumeration literal shall indicate that replication shall create and maintain a copy of the source.
Snapshot This enumeration literal shall indicate that replication shall create a point in time, virtual copy of the source.

string Description
Active This enumeration literal shall indicate Active-Active (i.e. bidirectional) synchronous updates.
Adaptive This enumeration literal shall indicate that an implementation may switch between synchronous and asynchronous modes.
Asynchronous This enumeration literal shall indicate Asynchronous updates.
Synchronous This enumeration literal shall indicate Synchronous updates.

Inactive This enumeration literal shall indicate that data flow has stopped, writes to source element shall not be sent to target element.
Initialized This enumeration literal shall indicate that the link to enable replication is established and source/replica elements are associated, but the data flow has not started.
Invalid This enumeration literal shall indicate that the storage server is unable to determine the state of the replication relationship, for example, after the connection is restored; however, either source or target elements have an unknown status.
Mixed This enumeration literal shall indicate the ReplicaState of GroupSynchronized. The value indicates the StorageSynchronized relationships of the elements in the group have different ReplicaState values.
Partitioned This enumeration literal shall indicate that the state of replication relationship can not be determined, for example, due to a connection problem.
Prepared This enumeration literal shall indicate that initialization is completed, however, the data flow has not started.
