Creating a Backup of a Virtual Copy

When you create a backup of one virtual copy, HP 3PAR Recovery Manager copies the existing
virtual copy, and the backup software backs the copy up to the media using the same timestamp
as the original copy. HP 3PAR Recovery Manager does not create a new virtual copy for backups
of an individual virtual copy.

In the node tree pane, right-click the virtual copy you want to back up and select Backup to
Media.
