Using a Path in the Shadow Volume
You may want to consolidate several source volumes into a single shadow volume, for
ease of backups. Each source volume can store its files in a separate directory in the
shadow volume. Use the optional
path argument to create such a directory inside the
volume:
target [[hostname host] namespace name] volume shadow path path
where
host, name, and shadow are described above, and
path (optional, 1-1024 characters) is the path where the copies will be stored.
This is a path from the root of the volume.
For example, the following command sequence selects two directories as
shadow-copy targets:
prtlndA1k(gbl)# namespace testns
