Yes, but unfortunately I spoke too soon. > > Would you want a new level called VirtualFullCopy, or an additional flag > somewhere? We should think about this some more. Perhaps we could come up with a way to mark a Job offsite rather than as a Copy. Something like that would fit much better with the current direction we are taking. It might be something like your proposed Pool flag, but that is problematic from several stand points: 1. It requires a database change. 2. It assumes (I think) that the Pool is used for only one type of Volume, which is not currently the case, and if we made it so, it would vastly complicate life for small users who use only the Default Pool. Some way of using current DB fields would be preferable -- or simply do a Virtual Full then a Copy job :-) Kern > > Thanks > > James > > > --------------------------------------------------------------------------- >--- OpenSolaris 2009.06 is a cutting edge operating system for enterprises > looking to deploy the next generation of Solaris that includes the latest > innovations from Sun and the OpenSource community.
