How to set partion after creating a user thru iControl API

The one thing that I've noticed is that there is one active partition per user when accessing via iControl. I have multiple modules making iControl API calls (with the same user/password) whichever module sets the active partition last impacts all other modules.

 

 

This makes it difficult for a given module to assume that the active partition it just set is still the active partition in the next call and creates a racing condition. This doesn't seem to be true in the GUI where different GUIs logged in as the same user could still have different active partitions.

 

 

I think the partition support in iControl needs to be enhanced to either include a optional parition parameter in most calls (which is a pain) or have some concept of a "session" similar to the GUI and the active partition would be tied to a session. Or is there some other way to work around this issue?

 

 

Thanks!
