Creating your file...
You can re-create a snapshot volume or a snapshot consistency group snapshot volume that you previously disabled. Re-creating a snapshot volume takes less time than creating a new one.
-
The snapshot volume must be in either an Optimal or Disabled state.
-
All member snapshot volumes must be in a Disabled state before you can re-create the snapshot consistency group snapshot volume.
You cannot re-create an individual member snapshot volume; you can re-create only the overall snapshot consistency group snapshot volume.
If the snapshot volume or snapshot consistency group snapshot volume is part of an online copy relationship, you cannot perform the re-create option on the volume. |
