How to get all pyhical disks, and create virtual disks?

Is there any examples?

Hey @wahello - there are actually a few different paths to get to the physical drives, depending on what association you are trying to use. The most common I think would be through either the Chassis or System objects. Here's an example of getting all drives in a Chassis:

//
// SPDX-License-Identifier: BSD-3-Clause

package main

import (
	"fmt"

	"github.com/stmcginnis/gofish"
)

func main() {
	// Create a new instance of gofish client, ignoring self-signed certs
	config := gofish.ClientConfig{
		Endpoint: "https://bmc-ip",
		Username: "my-username",
		Password: "my-password",
		Insecure: true,
	}
	c, err := gofish.Connect(config)
	if err != nil {
		panic(err)
	}
	defer c.Logout()

	// Retrieve the service root
	service := c.Service

	// Query the chassis data using the session token
	chassis, err := service.Chassis()
	if err != nil {
		panic(err)
	}

	for _, chass := range chassis {
		fmt.Printf("Chassis: %#v\n\n", chass)
		drives, err := chass.Drives()
		if err == nil {
			for i, drive := range drives {
				fmt.Printf("    Drive %d: %#v\n", i, drive)
			}
		}
	}
}

As far as creating a virtual disk, I have not done that myself, so I'm not sure. Looks like it may be an operation on the System's StorageController, but I don't have a good example handy. It may be that we should get a new call added to the gofish library to handle this.

Thanks.

Hi, I don't know if this helps here's what I did to get the same.

    Config := gofish.ClientConfig{
        Endpoint: "https://" + values.IP,
        Username: values.Username,
        Password: values.Password,
        Insecure: true,
    }
    // Create client connection
    connect, err := gofish.Connect(Config)

    // Create service Root
    service := connect.Service

    // Get system instances
    system, err := service.Systems()
    if err != nil {
        fmt.Println(err)
        continue
    }
    for _, value := range system {
        var physicaldisk []string
        var virtualdisk []string
        storage, err := value.Storage()
        for _, vs := range storage {
            vols, _ := vs.Volumes()
            for _, vols := range vols {
                if strings.Contains(vols.ODataID, ".Virtual.0") {
                    virtualdisk = append(virtualdisk, vols.ODataID)
                }
            }
            drives, _ := vs.Drives()
            for _, vd := range drives {
                physicaldisk = append(physicaldisk, vd.Name)    
            }
        }
    }
}
