Command Reference Guide

–pol no_stale_ss|stale_ss|one_host|no_one_host
Specifies the policy (rule) that the created virtual volume follows. If an argument is not specified,
the policy defaults to stale_ss.
stale_ss
Specifies that invalid snapshot volumes are permitted. Failure to update snapshot data does not
affect the write to the base volume. However, the snapshot is considered invalid.
no_stale_ss
Specifies that invalid snapshot volumes are not permitted. A failure to update a snapshot is
considered a failure to write to the base volume.
one_host
This constrains the export of a volume to one host or one host cluster (when cluster names can be
used as a host name).
no_one_host
This policy should only be used when exporting a Virtual Volume to multiple hosts for use by a
cluster-aware application, or when port presents VLUNs are used. This is the default policy setting.
