Table 10. Snapshot Virtual Disk Commands

Command

Description

create snapshotVirtualDisk

Creates a snapshot virtual disk.

re-create snapshot

Starts a fresh copy-on-write operation by using an 
existing snapshot virtual disk.

set (snapshotVirtualDisk)

Defines the properties for a snapshot virtual disk and 
enables you to rename a snapshot virtual disk.

stop snapshot

Stops a copy-on-write operation.

Using Host Servers To Create An Initial Snapshot Virtual Disk

CAUTION: Before using the Snapshot Virtual Disks Premium Feature in a Microsoft Windows clustered 
configuration, you must first map the snapshot virtual disk to the cluster node that owns the source virtual disk. 
This ensures that the cluster nodes correctly recognize the snapshot virtual disk.
If you map the snapshot virtual disk to the node that does not own the source virtual disk before the snapshot 
enabling process is completed, the operating system may fail to correctly identify the snapshot virtual disk. This 
can result in data loss on the source virtual disk or an inaccessible snapshot.
For details on mapping the snapshot virtual disk to the secondary node, see the Dell PowerVault MD3200 and 
MD3220 Storage Arrays With Microsoft Windows Server Failover Clusters or 

Dell PowerVault MD3200i and 

MD3220i Storage Arrays With Microsoft Windows Server Failover Clusters

 at support.dell.com/manuals.

NOTE: You can create concurrent snapshots of a source virtual disk on both the source disk group and on another 
disk group.

Before creating a Snapshot Virtual Disk, note the following:

•

The following types of virtual disks are not valid source virtual disks: snapshot repository virtual disks, snapshot 

virtual disks, target virtual disks that are participating in a virtual disk copy.

•

You cannot create a snapshot of a virtual disk that contains unreadable sectors.

•

You must satisfy the requirements of your host operating system for creating snapshot virtual disks. Failure to 

meet the requirements of your host operating system results in an inaccurate point-in-time image of the source 

virtual disk or the target virtual disk in a virtual disk copy.

Creating A Snapshot Virtual Disk

The 

create snapshotVirtualDisk

 command provides three methods for defining the physical disks for your 

snapshot repository virtual disk:

•

Define each physical disk for the snapshot repository virtual disk by enclosure ID and slot ID.

•

Define a disk group in which the snapshot repository virtual disk resides. Optionally define the capacity of the 

repository virtual disk.

•

Define the number of physical disks, but not specific physical disks, for the repository virtual disk.

When using the 

create snapshotVirtualDisk

 command to create a snapshot virtual disk, the standard virtual 

disk name for the source virtual disk is the minimum information required. When you provide only the standard virtual 
disk name, the storage management software provides default values for the other required property parameters for a 
snapshot virtual disk.
