Modify the Snapshot copy reserve

Contributors

You might want to configure a larger Snapshot copy reserve to prevent Snapshot copies from using space reserved for the active file system. You can decrease the Snapshot copy reserve when you no longer need as much space for Snapshot copies.

Step
  1. Modify the Snapshot copy reserve:

    volume modify -vserver SVM -volume volume -percent-snapshot-space snap_reserve

    For complete command syntax, see the man page.

    The following example sets the Snapshot copy reserve for vol1 to 10 percent:

    cluster1::> volume modify -vserver vs0 -volume vol1 -percent-snapshot-space 10
