The EVM job files are Saved—copied from the Management Appliance to the
chosen host computer.

Following a reload:
• Notice that the job status for all EVM jobs is set to “idle” and that the job validity
is set to “unknown.” These indications mean that all EVM jobs are in an unknown
state and must be revalidated before they can be used.
• When a saved EVM configuration is reloaded, the job state information is lost.
The job state defines the current operational status of the job (idle, running,
complete, undo complete, and so on). If state information is lost, the ability to
undo a complete or partially complete job is lost. If this occurs, manually remove
all mounted BCVs and modify the storage configuration to return this
configuration to its original state.
• In most cases, storage resources used by EVM can be identified by the container
names. Any container created or modified by EVM uses a name of the type
C!yyyyy!C, where “yyyyy” is any number from 0 to 99999. EVM uses this
special naming convention for all resources that EVM creates or modifies.
