Schedule Create Virtual Copy
The Schedule Create Virtual Copy is an extension of the Create Virtual Copy wizard, with the
additional Schedule box at the bottom. When you open the Schedule Create Virtual Copy dialog,
the Create Schedule radio button is preselected.
When creating a schedule, the next available snapshot ID will always be used. Therefore, the Auto
checkbox for the id and the id field itself are hidden when the Show advanced options checkbox
is deselected and disabled when both a Parent Volume and the Show advanced options checkbox
are selected.
Read Only and Read/Write radio buttons are also hidden, as the procedure creates the intermediate
volume if making a RO from RO or RW from RW. The radio buttons will be selected accordingly
depending on the Parent Volume. Read Only will be selected if the parent is RW and Read/Write
will be selected if the parent is RO.
To schedule a Create Virtual Copy task:
1.
Selection Tasks & Schedules in the Manager Pane.

NOTE: If you selected a virtual volume set from the Parent Volume list, the Destination

replaced with the names of the virtual volumes belonging to the selected virtual volume set.
For example, if your virtual volume set contains virtual volumes named VV1, VV2, and VV3,
the destination virtual volumes will be named VV1.copy, VV2.copy, and VV3.copy. If you
