NOTE:

All the virtual disks of the virtual disk group must have RW permissions to exactly the same
hosts.

If any member of the group is clustered, then all members of the group must have the cluster
bit set. If any member is presented to two or more hosts, then all members of the group must
set the cluster bit.

CreateVDGroupPiT

command

Syntax

CreateVDGroupPiT -Group VDGName, ~
-Pit NameOfPiT [TEMPLATE], -timeout 900

Description

Creates a PiT of the virtual disk group virtual disks or snapshots. If the Template is used, the name
of the object must be less than 16 characters long.

CreateVDGroupSnapshot

command

Syntax

CreateVDGroupSnapshot -Group VDGroupName, ~
-snapshot SnapshotName [TEMPLATE], ~
-Pit NameOfPiT [LastInstance | LastAsyncMirror], ~
-host HostName1 RW|OFF, [-host HostName2 RW|OFF, ...] ~
-StoragePool PoolName, -cluster 0|1, -timeout 900

Description

Creates a snapshot on the virtual disk group's PiT.

NOTE:

The -host argument is considered optional by the VSM API, but is required by the VSM
(returns an error).

If [TEMPLATE] is used, the name of the object must be less than 16 characters long.

If the LastInstance flag is used, the preceding PiT name is the root name, and the most recently
created snapshot PiT (with a template name) is used.

If the LastAsyncMirror (not the LastSyncMirror) flag is used, the preceding PiT name is the root
name, and the most recently created AsyncMirror PiT on the specific virtual disk is used.
