To mount a virtual copy, proceed as follows:

2 Click the Virtual Copies tab.
3 Select the virtual copy you wish to mount from the Virtual Copy Set list.
4 Right-click the virtual copy in the virtual copy table.
A menu appears providing two mount choices:
◆ Mount on ESX host as Datastore on - Select from a list of ESX hosts managed by the
vCenter Server that share access to the InServ Storage Server.
◆ Mount on Proxy Host - Select from a list of hosts not managed by the vCenter Server,
but which have access to the InServ Storage Server.
NOTE: When working with virtual copies, you may need to refresh the display in
order to view the most accurate volume details. See 5.3 Refreshing Virtual
Volume Information on page 5.13.
NOTE: If the virtual copy operation fails, refer to the event log to review details.
See 6.1.1 Viewing Virtual Copy Event Logs on page 6.4.
NOTE: For ESX 3.5, the LVM.EnableResignature parameter must be set to “1” to
allow mount operations. The parameter can be found in the ESX host
Configuration, Advanced Settings, and LVM options.
