HP P2000 G3 MSA System CLI Reference Guide 101

export snapshot

Description Exports a replication snapshot on the local system to a new standard snapshot. The standard

snapshot will reside in the same snap pool, take a snapshot license, and be independent of the

replication snapshot. The standard snapshot can used like any other standard snapshot, and

changes to it will not affect the replication snapshot.

The standard snapshot is subject to the snap pool's deletion policies. If the snap pool reaches its

critical threshold, the snapshot may be deleted, even if it is mapped. If you want to preserve the

snapshot's data, you can create a standard volume from the snapshot; see the volumecopy

command.

The export command will not succeed if the replication snapshot is on a remote system or if the

resulting snapshot would exceed license limits.

Syntax

export snapshot

name standard-snapshot

[set replication-set]

replication-snapshot

Parameters name standard-snapshot

A name for the resulting snapshot.

set replication-set

Optional. Name or serial number of the replication set.

replication-snapshot

Name or serial number of the replication snapshot to export. If the name is not unique across

replication sets, specify the set parameter.

Example Export local replication snapshot RepSnap1 to standard snapshot Snap1:

# export snapshot name Snap1 RepSnap1

Info: The exported snapshot will reside in the snap pool. If the snap pool

reaches its critical threshold, the snapshot may be deleted, even if it is

mapped. To preserve the exported snapshot's data, create a volume copy of the

exported snapshot.

Info: The snapshot has been exported. (Snap1)

Success: Command completed successfully. (2012-01-21 12:10:32)
