Enables cloning and mounting a source storage from the specified Snapshot copy.

Syntax

Mount-SdClone [-SourcePath]  <String[]>  [-Snapshot]  <String>  [-ResourceType]  <ResourceType>  [-Host]  <String>  [-Igroup]  <String>  [-Initiators]  <String>  [-IgroupProtocol]  <IgroupProtocolEnum>  [-IgroupOsType]  <IgroupOSTypeEnum>  [-CheckInitiatorSession]  <>  [-Session]  <String>

Detailed Description

Enables cloning and mounting a source storage from the specified Snapshot copy.For a LUN, the cloned volume name is automatically appended with a unique identifier, while the LUN name remains the same.For example:If the original volume is PrimarySVM:/vol/SCE_VOL, the cloned volume name is PrimarySVM:/vol/SCE_VOL1201210041488133.

Examples

Example 1: Clone a Volume from a given snapshot

 PS C:\> Mount-SdClone -SourcePath Primary_SVM:/vol/VOl1_LM_Port_Issue_Test -Snapshot r70105ec0a5v1_hnk2_com_L__ValidPath_Data_R70105EC0A5V1_05-24-2021_12.46.42.3914

This example syntax specifies the storage volume path and clones the Snapshot copy onto newly cloned volume.

------ -----
Primary_SVM:/vol/VOl1_LM_Port_Issue_Test Primary_SVM:/vol/Vol1_LM_Port_Issue_Test0525210820263222

Example 2: Clone a volume from a given Snapshot copy with the ResourceType and host name specified

 PS C:\> Mount-SdClone -SourcePath Primary_SVM:/vol/Vol1  -Snapshot Host1_Policy1_12-01-2021_02.31.22.3854  -ResourceType SDStorageVolume -Host Host1.DMN.COM -Verbose

This example syntax specifies the storage volume path and clones the Snapshot copy to a newly cloned volume with the ResourceType and host name.

VERBOSE: Operation successful.
