How to user-assign drive letter w/ admsnap clone_activate (Windows 2003)
Using CX4-120, Flare 29
The "admsnap clone_activate" command in the CLI Reference makes no mention of a user-assigned drive letter (Windows 2003).
The admsnap clone_activate command scans for new devices and, for Windows, assigns
a drive letter to every new device it finds. When you activate a clone and add it to a storage
group, the clone becomes accessible on the secondary server.
Is there a way to user-assign the drive letter, via CLI command?
Thanks!

Yes. You can use the -o switch to assign a drive letter: admsnap start -s session1 -o H:
Please see the EMC SnapView admsnap Utility Administrator's Guide found on Home > Support > Technical Documentation and Advisories > Software ~ S ~ Documentation > SnapView > Maintenance/Administration.
Thanks,

For the "clone_activate" switch, there is no -o switch - you can not assign a drive letter to the clone.

Oh I see. I mistook this for Snapview snapshots! Sorry for the miss understanding.
