SnapshotHostVolume

Creates snapshots (point-in-time copies) of the storage volumes (virtual disks) that underlies a host
volume. 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:
SnapshotHostVolume ( %hostvol_unc_name%, DEMAND_ALLOCATED, SAME, WAIT )
UNC Host Volume Name (%hostvol_unc_name%). Select or enter the UNC name of the host disk
device to be copied.
Snapshot Type. Select demand_allocated or fully_allocated.
RAID Level. Select the redundancy level for the copy. Choices are RAID0, RAID1, RAID5, and same. See
virtual disks redundancy level.
Wait for Discovery. Select wait or nowait. See jobs
Examples
These examples show host volume mount points. Device names can also be used.
