associated master volume. The snapshot's name and other volume characteristics are not
changed.

same controller as the source volume.
•
ReplicateVolume
: Replicates a replication set's primary volume to a remote system.
•
EnableDSD
: Enables spin down for all vdisks. You can use this to enable or resume spin down
during hours of infrequent activity.

down during hours of frequent activity.
