To copy one volume to another, use the following command syntax:
vol copy start [ -S | -s
snapshot
]
source
destination
6SHFLI\LQJWKH6QDSVKRWVWR&RS\
The
-S
and
-s
arguments specify the snapshots to copy. Table 15-2 describes the
snapshots to copy and the resulting snapshots on the destination volume, depending
on the argument.
NOTE: The
vol copy start -S
command does not copy any snapshots that are
created when the copying is in progress. For example, if the copying lasts from
11:45 p.m. to 1:00 a.m. the next day, and the filer creates a snapshot named nightly.1
at midnight, the filer does not copy the nightly.1 snapshot.

The
source
and
destination
arguments are the names of the volumes. If a volume is
on a different filer, precede the volume name with the filer name and a colon. For
examples illustrating how to specify volume names, see Examples of the vol copy
start Command.
