Stop Snapshot Image Rollback

Description

This command stops a snapshot image rollback operation that was initiated by the start snapImage rollback command.

NOTE: Canceling a snapshot image rollback operation leaves the base virtual disk in an indeterminate state with potentially invalid or inconsistent data. The related snapshot image virtual disk becomes disabled and unusable.

Syntax

stop snapImage [
                                 snapImageName] rollback

Parameter

Parameter

Description

snapImage

The name of the snapshot image for which you want to stop a rollback operation. The name of a snapshot image is comprised of two parts:

The name of the snapshot group.
An identifier for the snapshot image in the snapshot group.

The identifier for the snapshot image can be one of these:

An integer value that is the sequence number of the snapshot in the snapshot group.
NEWEST - Use this option when you want to show the latest snapshot image created in the snapshot group.
OLDEST - Use this option when you want to show the earliest snapshot image created in the snapshot group.

Enclose the snapshot image name in double quotation marks (" ") inside square brackets ([ ]).

Notes

The name of a snapshot image has two parts separated by a colon (:):

The identifier of the snapshot group
The identifier of the snapshot image

For example, if you want to stop a rollback operation for snapshot image 12345 in a snapshot group that has the name snapGroup1, you would use this command:

stop snapImage ["snapGroup1:12345"] rollback;

To stop a rollback operation for the most recent snapshot image in a snapshot group that has the name snapGroup1, you would use this command:

stop snapImage ["snapGroup1:newest"] rollback;
