HP StorageWorks SAN Virtualization Services Platform Manager command line interface user guide (AG781-96016, March 2009)

NOTE:
• This operation is allowed, even if PiTs are defined on the virtual disk group.
• All the virtual disks of the virtual disk group must have RW permissions to exactly the same hosts.
• If any member of the group is clustered, then all members of the group must have the cluster bit
set. If any member is presented to two or more hosts, then all members of the group must set the
cluster bit.
• All virtual disks in the virtual disk group must be defined in Windows as dynamic disks (to allow
the file system to span multiple disks).
• If the -Drive is specified, all virtual disks in the virtual disk group must be defined in Windows
as dynamic disks (to allow the file system to span multiple disks).
• The destination SVSP domain and the single task names are all implied through the virtual disk
group (the VSM automatically retrieves them).
• The -Thin flag refers to the destination task of the async mirror group.
The optional -Drive is the drive of the mounted virtual disk group. On Windows, the actual drive
letter ends with a colon.
