Tenant CLI command syntax

Tenant default value of IPv6 networking mask used by disaggregator algorithms.

Specifies the crypto device support for the tenant. When enabled, the tenant receives dedicated crypto devices proportional to the number of vCPU cores. When disabled, the tenant receives no crypto device support.

Specifies the IPv4 IPv6 address of the default gateway for the management network. This IP address can be changed on the tenant itself. This field is required.

Specifies which software image to install on newly created virtual disks for this tenant. This field is required.

Specifies the memory in MBs for the tenant. For the commit to succeed, tenant configuration requires the minimum MBs required depending on the number of cores specified for the tenant. For example, for 2 vCPU cores, the minimum amount of memory is 7680 MB. The administrator must decide the amount of dedicated memory needed to satisfy the requirements of the

BIG-IP

or

BIG-IP Next

modules that will be provisioned within the tenant.

Specifies the management IP address to the tenant. This address floats to the primary node of the tenant. The address can be changed on the tenant. This field is required.

Lists the nodes that the tenant can be assigned to. This field is required. Specifies the nodes on the chassis partition on which to provision the tenant. Though you can specify nodes that are not part of the chassis partition, the tenant will not be provisioned until the resources are included in the chassis partition.

Specifies the prefix length of the management network. This field is required.

Specifies the state of a tenant: configured, provisioned, or deployed. Tenants are put in the configured state by default. Configured means the tenant exists on partition, but the tenant has no hardware resources (CPU or memory) allocated to it and it is not running. When the tenant is provisioned, the system assigns the tenant to nodes and creates virtual disks for the tenant on those nodes. In the deployed state, allocated resources are used to launch the tenant VM. Note that, specifying deployed causes the actions that occur in the configured and provisioned states. To shut down the tenant VM without removing the virtual disk, change the running state from deployed to provisioned. Changing the tenant running-state to configured from provisioned or deployed causes its virtual disk to be deleted.

Specifies how much storage quota a tenant is allocated. The default size is 77 GB. You cannot modify the size of the virtual disk when the tenant is in the deployed running-state. You can modify the storage size when the tenant is in configured or provisioned running-states. For information on determining minimum disk size, see Tenant sizing.

Specifies the supported tenants on the VELOS system.

Specifies how many cores a tenant is allocated from each node that it is assigned to. Use tab completion to see a list of possible values on the current

VELOS

system. The default value is 2

Specifies the VLAN ID to be used for tenant traffic. To process the traffic through the tenant, make sure the VLAN is configured on the chassis partition.
