Description

Property

The status of the PiT.

Init—The PiT is being created.

Normal—The status of all the virtual disks from which the PiT is constructed is
normal. This includes an original virtual disk, the temporary virtual disk created
for the PiT, and any PiTs and snapshots between the original virtual disk and
the PiT in the hierarchy.

Partial—The status of one of the virtual disks from which the PiT is constructed
is partial.

Status

The current state of the PiT. Possible values:

Create—The temporary virtual disk created to hold future modifications to the
virtual disk data is in the process of creation and sector 0 is not yet initialized.
The reallocation table is not yet cleared.

Normal— The temporary virtual disk completed initialization and is in a normal
operational state.

Resync— The PiT is being deleted. The modifications held in the temporary
virtual disk are being merged back into the lower level that might be a virtual
disk or an earlier PiT.

Rollback—The virtual disk is being rolled back. The PiT is being deleted without
the modifications of the temporary virtual disk being written to the lower level,
which might be a virtual disk or an earlier PiT. For more information, see

Rolling back virtual disks and VDGs

” on page 228.

Absent—A transitional state in which PiT deletion (resync) is complete but the
VSM server is waiting for a final acknowledgement from the host before it de-
letes the temporary virtual disks used for the deleted PiT.

Restore View—The virtual disk on which the PiT was created is in a Restore
View state. For more information, see “

Restoring from snapshots

” on page 230.

Init—The PIT is being initialized. The reallocation table on the temporary virtual
disk is being created and initialized.

State

The percentage progress of the resynchronization process that takes place if a PiT
is deleted. In this resynchronization process, the data from the temporary virtual
disk that was created for the PiT is merged into the source element or into an older
PiT.

Synchronization Level

The time when the PiT was created.

Creation Time

The size of the temporary virtual disk which holds the modifications made on the
PiT. This field shows you how much capacity from the storage pool is used by the
PiT.
