Saving operation history to a text file

Use the snapshot function to save operation history to a text file. This text file is called a snapshot
file
.

NOTE:

You can use the snapshot function only when client file access is enabled. When client

file access is not enabled, the Snapshot button does not appear on the History Operation pane.
For more information about client file access settings, see the HP StorageWorks XP Command View
user guide for XP Disk Arrays
or the HP StorageWorks XP Remote Web Console user guide for
XP12000/XP10000/SVS200
.

NOTE:

If the number of operations exceeds approximately 10,000, the snapshot file is too large

to save on a floppy disk. If this happens, save the snapshot file on a large-capacity disk.

The following is an example of a snapshot file.
