NetWorker 19.7 Snapshot Management Integration Guide

Snapshot operations with SnapView software

VNX Block storage arrays run SnapView software that enables you to create a copy of a LUN by using clones or snapshots. You can use a clone or snapshot for data backups. A clone is a complete copy of a LUN and takes time to create. A snapshot is a virtual point-in-time copy of a LUN and takes only seconds to create. A NetWorker snapshot operation uses SnapView to create an exact point-in-time snapshot of the volume, creates a clone copy of the entire volume that NetWorker can recover, and clones to conventional storage media.

The VNX Series Command Line Interface Reference for Block documentation provides details.
