• Agent and license prerequisites. Requires a host agent. Requires a local replication license
for the storage system on which the underlying storage volume (presented source) is located.
• Command result value. List of snapclone storage volume names (UNC). For a complete list,
see Command result values.

Tru64 UNIX. When this command is used with AdvFS volumes that have heavy I/O, HP
recommends briefly suspending the I/O before the replication step. See Suspending I/O
before replicating AdvFS volumes.
• Some storage volumes that underlie a host volume cannot be copied using snapclone
replication. See the HP P6000 Replication Solutions Manager User Guide for snapclone
guidelines.
• This command can be used with the CreateHostVolume command to re-create a host volume
from one enabled host on another enabled host.
• See Resource names and UNC formats.

The snapclone copies are presented to the enabled host and a host bus scan is performed to identify
the presented storage.
