Set Snapshot Virtual Disk

Set Snapshot Virtual Disk

This command defines the properties for a snapshot virtual disk and enables you to rename a snapshot virtual disk.

Syntax

set (virtualDisk [virtualDiskName] | virtual disks [virtualDiskName1 ... virtualDiskNamen]) userLabel="snapshotVolumeName" warningThresholdPercent=percentValue repositoryFullPolicy=(failBaseWrites | failSnapShot)

Parameters

Parameter Description

virtualDiskName
The name of the specific snapshot virtual disk for which you want to define properties. (You can enter more than one virtual disk name if you use the virtual diskNames parameter). Enclose the snapshot virtual disk name in double quotes (" ") inside square brackets ([ ]).

userLabel
A new name you want to give to a snapshot virtual disk. Enclose the new snapshot virtual disk name in double quotes (" ").

warningThresholdPercent
The percentage of repository capacity at which you will receive a warning that the repository is nearing full. Use integer values. For example, a value of 70 means 70 percent. The default value is 50 percent.

repositoryFullPolicy
Defines how you want snapshot processing to continue if the repository is full. You can choose to fail writes to the source virtual disk (failBaseWrites) or fail writes to the snapshot virtual disk (failSnapShot). The default is failSnapShot.

Notes

When you use this command, you can specify one or more of the optional parameters. You do not, however, need to use all of the parameters.

You can use any combination of alphanumeric characters, hyphens, and underscores for the names. Names can have a maximum of 30 characters.

You can set the warningThresholdPercent and the repositoryFullPolicy parameters for both the repository virtual disk or snapshot virtual disk.
