How to set partion after creating a user thru iControl API

Hi,     I have created user using m_userManagement.create_user(users), which didn't have way to define partion. Is their any other API call which I can use to set up the partion.     Thank...

You are exactly on the right track. Management.Partition.set_active_partition() sets the current "working" partition for the currently connected user. Here's some pseudo-code for the process for creating the following

 

 

Pool1 in partition part_1

 

Pool2 in partition part_2

 

Pool3 in partition part_3

 

 

Partition.set_active_partition: "part_1"
Pool.create: "Pool1"
Partition.set_active_partition: "part_2" 
Pool.create: "Pool2"
Partition.set_active_partition: "part_3"
Pool.create: "Pool3"

 

 

You'll have to make sure that you are an administrator during this process so that you have write access in all of the partitions.
