[In] string ElementName,
[Out] CIM_ConcreteJob ref Job,
[In, REQ] CIM_LogicalElement ref SourceElement,
[Out] CIM_LogicalElement ref TargetElement,
[In] CIM_StorageSetting ref TargetSettingGoal,

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

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
