To remove a schedule, use the delete virtualDisk command with the schedule parameter. The
delete virtualDisk command with the schedule parameter deletes only the schedule, not the
snapshot (legacy) virtual disk.
Create Snapshot Virtual Disk
Description
This command creates a snapshot virtual disk for snapshot images of a base virtual disk. You can assign
the new snapshot virtual disk to an existing repository disk group or disk pool, or you can create a new
repository disk group or disk pool if one does not already exist.
NOTE: You cannot use this command for a snapshot image that is used in online virtual disk copy.

create snapVirtualDisk userLabel="snapVirtualDiskName" snapImageID="snapImageID"
[repositoryVirtualDisk="repos_xxxx" |
repositoryFullLimit=percentValue]
