• Agent and license prerequisites. Requires a host agent. Requires a local replication license for the
storage system on which the underlying storage volume (presented source) is located.
• Command result value. Snapshot storage volume name (UNC). For a complete list, see

SnapshotHostDiskDeviceToContainerInManagedSet

Creates preallocated snapshots (point-in-time copies) of the storage volumes (virtual disks) that underlie a
host disk device, by using containers in a managed set. The snapshot copies are presented to the
enabled host and a host bus scan is performed to identify the presented storage.
Syntax and arguments
When initially inserted into a job, the command syntax and default arguments are:
SnapshotHostDiskDeviceToContainerInManagedSet ( %hoststorvol_unc_name%, %managed_set_of_contain-
ers%, FULLY_ALLOCATED, NOWAIT )
UNC Host Disk Device Name (%hoststorvol_unc_name%). Select or enter the UNC name of the host disk
device to be copied.
Managed Set Name (%managed_set_of_containers%). Select or enter the name of the managed set
in which the virtual disk container is a member.
Snapshot Type. The only type is fully_allocated.
