Enter Virtual Copy retention time in days(d|D) or hours(h|H)
[h=help,s=skip,q=quit]?
Specifies the amount of time relative to the creation time that the Virtual Copy will be retained.
Input value should be a positive integer and in the range of 1 hour - 43800 hours (1825
days). d/D means days. h/H means hours. The default value is 0: by default, no retention
time is set for read-only Virtual Copies.
This prompt only appears in HP 3PAR Operating System Software OS 2.3.1 or above.
NOTE: This feature requires the HP 3PAR Virtual Lock Software license.
NOTE: If the database volumes do not belong to any domain, then the retention time of the
read-only Virtual Copy cannot exceed the VVRetentionTimeMax value of the system. The
VVRetentionTimeMax
default value for the system is 14 days. If the database volumes
belong to a domain, then the retention time of the read-only Virtual Copy cannot exceed the
VVRetentionTimeMax
value of the domain, if set. The retention time cannot be removed
or reduced once it is set. The retention time can be extended by rmora_set command. The
VVRetentionTimeMax
value can be checked via HP 3PAR OS Software CLI commands
showsys -param and showdomain -d.

Enter Virtual Copy expiration time in days(d|D) or hours(h|H)
[h=help,s=skip,q=quit]? (default=0d) h
There are two ways to maintain the Virtual Copies in the HP 3PAR StoreServ Storage system:
◦ Time-based policy: Enter an expiration time. When Virtual Copies expire, they are
automatically removed from the system.
To enter an expiration time, enter the amount of time, relative to the current time, that all
future Virtual Copies will expire. Valid expiration times range between 1 to 43,800 hours
(1825 days). You can specify the value in days or hours by adding either 'd' or 'D' for
day, or 'h' or 'H' for hours after the amount of time. The default value, '0d', means the
Virtual Copy has no expiration time.
◦ Count-based or numeric-based policy: Either skip this question or use the default value
'0' for the expiration date. You will be prompted for the maximum Virtual Copies you
want the system to keep.
NOTE: The numeric-based policy is deprecated and will be removed in a future release.

Enter maximum number of Virtual Copies allowed [h=help,q=quit]?
You will be prompted with this question if you did not set an expiration for a Virtual Copy in
the previous question. Enter the maximum number of Virtual Copies that can be created for
the specified database. Once the maximum number of Virtual Copies for the database is
