Dell PowerVault MD 32XX/36XX Series Storage Arrays CLI Guide

The Virtual Disk Copy premium feature copies data from one virtual disk (the source virtual disk) to another virtual disk (the target virtual disk) within a single storage array. You can use this premium feature to perform these functions:

• Copy data from disk groups that use smaller-capacity physical disks to disk groups that use larger-capacity physical disks
• Back up data
• Restore snapshot virtual disk data to the base virtual disk.

You can use a primary virtual disk in a remote replication as a source virtual disk or a target virtual disk in a virtual disk copy. You cannot use a secondary virtual disk as a source virtual disk or a target virtual disk.
