When you have discovered the exposed file systems on a network file server, and have refreshed the file system of your choice, you can create a storage repository on it. A storage repository is a child object of the file system that it is created on. In this example, we use a file system located on a Network File Server, however a repository can equally be created on alternate shared storage, such as an ISCSI LUN.

Add a storage repository by submitting a submitting a POST request to the following URI:

https://hostname:port/ovm/core/wsapi/rest/FileSystem/id/Repository
