These examples show host volume mount points. Device names can also be used. The required
replication step that precedes the host volume creation step is marked with asterisks (**).

Comments
• Associated validation commands. ValidateHostVolumeGroup.
• Agent and license prerequisites. Requires a host agent.
• Command result value. Host volume group name (UNC). For a complete list, see Command
result values.
• OS specifics. Yes. See examples above.
HP-UX. If the source host volume group uses HP-UX PVLinks for multiple paths, the replica will have
only one path defined. If necessary, you can use PVLinks to add paths to the replica after the job
is finished.
Linux. You cannot create a host volume group replica on the same host as the source volume group.
OpenVMS. OpenVMS does not support volume groups. This command is not applicable to
OpenVMS volume sets.
Windows. Windows does not support volume groups.
• See Resource names and UNC formats.
• See also CreateHostVolumeDiscrete.
