Dell PowerVault MD3220 - Create Snapshot Virtual Disk

Script Commands 141
Create Snapshot Virtual Disk
This command creates a snapshot virtual disk. When you use this command,
you can define the snapshot virtual disk in one of three ways:
• User-defined physical disks
• User-defined disk group
• User-defined number of physical disks for the snapshot virtual disk
If you choose to define a number of physical disks, the RAID controller module
firmware chooses which physical disks to use for the snapshot virtual disk.
