TAKESNAPSHOT

EMCMD <target system> TAKESNAPSHOT <volume letter> [<volume letter> ...]

This command, run on the target system, will notify DataKeeper to establish a snapshot of the given volume(s) on the given system. If no snapshot location has been configured, the command will fail.

The parameters are:

<target system> This is the target system name/IP address containing the volume to be snapshotted.
<volume letter> This is the drive letter(s) of the volume(s) to be snapshotted on the target server. If multiple volumes are to be snapshotted, the drive letters should be separated by spaces.

 

Note: All target volumes must have the same source system.
