Snapshot Virtual Disk
Snapshot Virtual Disk captures point-in-time images of a virtual disk for
backup, testing, or data processing without affecting the contents of the
source virtual disk. You can use either Simple Path or Advanced Path to
create a snapshot for your cluster disk. The Snapshot Virtual Disk can be
mapped to the primary node (the node owning the source disk) or the
secondary node (the node not owning the source disk) for backup, testing, or
data processing.
