IN/OUTCommentsTypeParameter
Name
IN
This describes the type of copy that will be made. The
supported values are:
• 2 ("Async") - Create and maintain an asynchronous
copy of the source.
• 3 ("Sync") - Create and maintain a synchronized copy
of the source.
• 4 ("UnSyncAssoc") - Create an unsynchronized copy
and maintain an association to the source.
• 5 ("UnSyncUnAssoc") - Create unassociated copy of
the source element.
The value for this parameter shall be:
• ""UnSyncAssoc" to cause the creation of a PiT-snap-
shot
• "Sync" to cause the creation of a single SyncMirror
pair
• “Async" to cause the creation of a single mirror group-
job
• “UnSyncUnAssoc" to cause the creation of a single
snapclone group-job
uint16CopyType
IN - Required
The definition for the StorageSetting to be maintained by
the target StorageVirtualDisk. (for example., the Replica)
The Quality of Service is determined by the pool specified
in TargetPool. For compliance, a setting shall be supplied
here that has been generated as a default from the
StorageCapabilities associated to the TargetPool.
This value is not used in this implementation and shall be
null. The Quality of Service is determined by the passed
Pool.

ting REF
TargetSetting-
Goal
IN - Required
The underlying storage for the target StorageVirtualDisk
(for example, the Replica) will be drawn from TargetPool
if specified, otherwise the allocation is implementation
specific.
This shall specify the destination VSM pool from which
to create the copy target.
SNIA_Storage-
Pool REF

OUT - Re-
quired
Reference to the target StorageVirtualDisk created. (for
example, the Replica)
CIM_LogicalEle-
ment REF

OUT
This method will produce jobs if the Copy type is Sync,
Async, or UnSyncUnAssoc.
