8.3.11 Duplicating a volume

You can create a new volume by using the same presets and parameters as an existing

volume. These parameters are shown:

򐂰 Volume preset (generic, thin-provision, and compressed)

򐂰 Volume size

򐂰 Storage pool

򐂰 Access and caching I/O group

򐂰 Caching mode

򐂰 Easy Tier status

򐂰 Virtualization type

Important: Duplicating a volume does not duplicate the volume data. The duplicating task

creates a volume with the same preset and volume parameters as the source volume.

Duplicating mirrored and image-mode volumes is not supported.
