Parameter

Description

 

 

warningThresholdPercent

Specifies how full to allow the snapshot repository

 

virtual disk to get before sending a warning that

 

the snapshot repository virtual disk is close to

 

capacity. The warning value is a percentage of the

 

total capacity of the snapshot repository virtual

 

disk. The default value is 50, which represents

 

50 percent of total capacity. (Change this value

 

using the set snapshotVirtualDisk

 

command.)

repositoryPercentOfSource

Specifies the size of the snapshot repository virtual

 

disk as a percentage of the source virtual disk size.

 

The default value is 20, which represents 20

 

percent of the source virtual disk size.

repositoryFullPolicy

Specifies how snapshot processing continues if the

 

snapshot repository virtual disk is full. You can

 

choose to fail writes to the source virtual disk

 

(failSourceWrites) or fail writes to the snapshot

 

virtual disk (failSnapShot). The default value is

 

failSnapShot.

enableSchedule

Turns on or off the ability to schedule a snapshot

 

operation. To turn on snapshot scheduling, set the

 

parameter to TRUE. To turn off snapshot

 

scheduling, set the parameter to FALSE. Schedules

 

a snapshot operation of the following type:

 

immediate

 

startDate

 

scheduleDay

 

startTime

 

scheduleInterval

 

endDate

 

noEndDate

 

timesPerDay

 

timeZone

The following example of the create sourceVirtualDisk command includes userdefined parameters:
