To reattach a snapshot
Use the following command, to re-attach some or all plexes of an instant
snapshot to the specified original volume, or to a source volume in the
snapshot hierarchy above the snapshot volume:
# vxsnap [-g diskgroup] reattach snapvol source=vol \
[nmirror=number]
For example the following command reattaches 1 plex from the snapshot
volume, snapmyvol, to the volume, myvol:
# vxsnap -g mydg reattach snapmyvol source=myvol nmirror=1
While the reattached plexes are being resynchronized from the data in the
parent volume, they remain in the SNAPTMP state. After resynchronization is
complete, the plexes are placed in the SNAPDONE state.
