You can configure endpoint mapping on a storage volume to make a connection to a
resource.

## Before you begin

Role required: admin

## About this task

In the following example, the endpoint mapping that is configured for a storage volume specifies the conditions that must be met and the operation to execute to make a connection to a resource (a virtual server in the example) that supports a binding interface to a storage volume. The storage volume implements the endpoint (type Block EP in the example) and the virtual server consumes the endpoint: Figure 1. Endpoint mapping for a storage volume The settings on the example Resource Endpoint Mappings related list specifies the conditions and an action:

* For a resource block that supports a binding interface to a Storage Volume
* For a Source resource with CI type of Storage Volume
* With an Endpoint type of Block EP (cmdb_ci_endpoint_block)

Use the Attach operation to implement the connection. Use
the specified Operation Implementation to perform the
Attach operation.

## Procedure

1. While configuring a resource block, open the Resource Endpoint Mapping related list, click New, and then specify the following settings:  

   |-|-|
   | Binding Resource | Resource block that consumes the Endpoint that the Source Resource presents. |
   | Endpoint | Type of endpoint that the Source Resource presents. |
   | Type | Type of operation to perform for the mapping. Only operations that are appropriate for the specified Endpoint appear in the list. |
   | Operation implementation | Implementation that is called to perform the operation that you are defining in this mapping. |
   | Application | Read-only. Cloud Provisioning and Governance application. |
   | Source Resource | Resource block that can present an Endpoint of the type that you specified. You typically do not change this setting. |

2. Repeat the process for as many mappings as are needed.
