Parameters
Parameter Description
virtualDisk or virtualDisks The name of the specific virtual disk for which you want to

Notes
Names can be any combination of alphanumeric characters, underscore (_), hyphen (-), and pound (#). Names can have
a maximum of 30 characters.
One technique for naming the snapshot (legacy) virtual disk and the snapshot (legacy) repository virtual disk is to add a
hyphenated suffix to the original base virtual disk name. The suffix distinguishes between the snapshot (legacy) virtual
disk and the snapshot (legacy) repository virtual disk. For example, if you have a base virtual disk with a name of
Engineering Data, the snapshot (legacy) virtual disk can have a name of Engineering Data-S1, and the snapshot (legacy)
repository virtual disk can have a name of EngineeringData- R1.
If you do not choose a name for either the snapshot (legacy) virtual disk or the snapshot (legacy) repository virtual disk,
the MD storage management software creates a default name by using the base virtual disk name. An example of the
