A new folder should appear in "Policies-->Orchestration" that contains the imported workflow. You will now need to update the included tasks with information about the specific environment.
Is this workflow for Clustered Ontap? Or 7-mode only?
Because, when editing Creating volume task or Initiator task, I get empty list of aggregates, volumes etc. But volumes and aggregates on my vserver exists
This particular workflow is for Clustered Data ONTAP (Cmode) specifically, it will not work with 7-mode. In for example the "Create Cluster Flexible Volume" task as you mentioned, make sure you choose the "Vserver Name" selection first, once you choose the Vserver, a list of associated Aggregates should become available.
If I select a Vserver, then I click on the "Select" button next to "Aggregate Name", you should now see a list of available aggregates.
Thanks,
Mike
