Understanding Workflow Parameters - Oracle ZFS Storage Appliance Administration Manual

Understanding Workflow Parameters

Workflows that do not operate on input have limited scope; many workflows need to be
parameterized to be useful. This is done by adding a parameters member to the global
workflow object. The parameters member is in turn an object that is expected to have a
member for each parameter. Each parameters member must have the following members:
TABLE 126
Required Member
label
type
The type member must be set to one of these types:
TABLE 127
Type name
Boolean
ChooseOne
EmailAddress
File
Host
HostName
HostPort
Integer
NetAddress
NodeName
NonNegativeInteger
Number
Password
