Synopsis

Retrieves storage volume template objects from HPE OneView.

Syntax

Get-OVStorageVolumeTemplate
    [-Name <String>]
    [-Label <String>]
    [-Scope <Object>]
    [-ApplianceConnection <Object>]
    [<CommonParameters>]

Description

Get-OVStorageVolumeTemplate retrieves volume templates that have been defined in HPE OneView. Volume templates capture a set of provisioning defaults — storage pool, capacity, provisioning type, sharing state, compression, and deduplication settings — and allow administrators to enforce consistent volume standards across their environment.

Templates can be used with New-OVStorageVolume and New-OVStorageVolumeTemplate. If the appliance has the mandatory template policy enabled (see Set-OVStorageVolumeTemplatePolicy), all new volumes must be created from a template.

Returned objects carry the HPEOneView.Storage.VolumeTemplate type and can be piped to New-OVStorageVolume, Set-OVStorageVolumeTemplate, or Remove-OVStorageVolumeTemplate.

Parameters

Name · String

Name of the volume template to retrieve. Supports wildcard matching. Aliased as TemplateName.

Label · String

Filter results to templates that have this label assigned.

Scope · Object

Filter by HPE OneView scope. Defaults to AllResourcesInScope.

ApplianceConnection · Object

HPE OneView appliance connection. Defaults to the default connected session. Aliased as Appliance.

Examples

$svt = Get-OVStorageVolumeTemplate -Name "Gold-Tier-Template"

Use a template to create a volume

$svt = Get-OVStorageVolumeTemplate -Name "Gold-Tier-Template"

New-OVStorageVolume -Name "DB-Vol-01" -VolumeTemplate $svt -Capacity 1024

List templates and display their storage pool associations

Get-OVStorageVolumeTemplate | Select-Object -Property name, storagePoolUri, provisioningType

Get all templates that have a specific label

Get-OVStorageVolumeTemplate -Label "production"

Output

HPEOneView.Storage.VolumeTemplate

Each object includes the template name, associated storage pool, default capacity, provisioning type, sharing configuration, and compression/deduplication settings.
