InForm OS Version 2.3.1 Command Line Interface Reference
-snp_al <percent>
Sets a snapshot space allocation limit. The snapshot space of the VV is prevented from
growing beyond the indicated percentage of the VV size.
The following options can be used when creating Thinly Provisioned Virtual Volumes (TPVVs):
-tpvv
Specifies that the volume should be a TPVV.
-usr_aw <percent>
This option enables user space allocation warning. It specifies that a warning alert is
generated when the user space of the TPVV exceeds the specified percentage of the VV
size.
-usr_al <percent>
This option sets the user space allocation limit. The user space of the TPVV is prevented
from growing beyond the indicated percentage of the VV size. After this size is reached,
any new writes to the VV will fail.
SPECIFIERS
<usr_CPG>
Specifies the name of the CPG from which the volume user space will be allocated. If the
-tpvv option is specified, the volume is thinly provisioned. Otherwise, the volume is fully
provisioned from the specified CPG. If the name of the CPG is to be taken from a template,
this field should be (
).
<VV_name> [.<index>]
Specifies a VV name up to 31 characters in length. If the -cnt option is used, the optional
decimal number
<index> specifies the name of the first VV (<vvname>.<index>).
The
<index> is incremented by 1 for each subsequent VV. The <index> must be an integer
from 0 through 999999. All VVs have the same length constraint.
<size>[g|G|t|T]
Specifies the size for the volume in MB. The volume size is rounded up to the next multiple
of 256 MB. The size should be an integer. An optional suffix (with no whitespace before
the suffix) will modify the units to GB (
g or G suffix) or TB (t or T suffix). If the size is to be
taken from a template, this field should be (
-).
