Recopy Virtual Disk Copy

Recopy Virtual Disk Copy

This command reinitiates a virtual disk copy operation using an existing virtual disk copy pair.

Syntax

recopy virtualDiskCopy target [targetName] [source [sourceName]] [copyPriority=(highest | high | medium | low | lowest) targetReadOnlyEnabled=(TRUE | FALSE)]

Parameters

Parameter Description

target
The name of the target virtual disk for which you want to reinitiate a virtual disk copy operation. Enclose the target virtual disk name in square brackets ([ ]). If the target virtual disk name has special characters, you must also enclose the virtual disk name in double quotes (" ").

source
The name of the source virtual disk for which you want to re-initiate a virtual disk copy operation. Enclose the source virtual disk name in square brackets ([ ]). If the source virtual disk name has special characters, you must also enclose the virtual disk name in double quotes (" ").

copyPriority
Defines the priority virtual disk copy will have relative to host I/O activity. Valid entries are highest, high, medium, low, or lowest

targetReadOnlyEnabled
Defines whether you can write to the target virtual disk or only read from the target virtual disk. To be able to write to the target virtual disk, set this parameter to FALSE. To prevent writing to the target virtual disk, set this parameter to TRUE.

Notes

Copy priority defines the amount of system resources used to copy the data between the source and target virtual disks of a virtual disk copy pair. If you select the highest priority level, the virtual disk copy uses the most system resource to perform virtual disk copy, which will decrease performance for host data transfers.
