LUN clones enable you to create multiple readable and writable copies of a LUN. You can use System Manager to create a temporary copy of a LUN for testing or to make a copy of your data available to additional users without providing them access to the production data.
Before you begin
- You must have installed the FlexClone license on the storage system.
- When space reservation is disabled on a LUN, the volume that contains the LUN must have enough space to accommodate changes to the clone.
Steps
- Click .
- In the LUN Management tab, select the LUN that you want to clone, and then click Clone.
- Optional: If you want to change the default name, specify a new name for the LUN clone.
- Click Clone.
- Verify that the LUN clone that you created is listed in the LUNs window.
