Table 53 StorageSynchronized Property Values for a Virtual Copy (continued)
ValueProperty
Synchronization is not maintained between replica and
source volume.
NULL to start with; non-NULL upon successful completion
of a copy. The point in time that the Elements were
synchronized.
WhenSynced
StorageReplicationCapabilities
The ability to create a virtual copy is described by the following instance of
TPD_StorageReplicationCapabilities:
• UnSyncAssoc-Delta – describes the capability of our provider to create an unsynchronized
delta snapshot replica that maintains an association with the source volume
CREATION
CLI EQUIVALENCE
createsv
SMI-S METHOD
A client can create a physical copy from the source volume by using the
TPD_StorageConfigurationService.CreateReplica() method.
uint32 CreateReplica(
[In] string ElementName,
[Out] CIM_ConcreteJob ref Job,

Uint16 CopyType);
• ElementName: Name of the target snapshot volume.
• Job: No job is created. This is NULL on output.
• SourceElement: Reference to the base StorageVolume to copy from.
• TargetElement: Reference to the target snapshot StorageVolume that is created.
• TargetSettingGoal: The definition for the StorageSetting to be maintained by the target
storage object. Only the BaseID property is applicable.
• TargetPool: Reference to the StoragePool from which the virtual copy volume is allocated.
This can either be NULL or the TPD_DeltaReplicaStoragePool associated with the
SourceElement volume. Any other values results in a Invalid Parameter error.
• CopyType: Can only be “UnsyncAssoc” (4)
◦
◦ UnsyncAssoc: Creates an unsynchronized virtual copy that is associated to the source
StorageVolume.
