Using the Snapshot disconnect operation

Use the snapdrive snap disconnect command to disconnect a Snapshot copy that is across multiple storage systems or storage system volumes.

You can use this command to disconnect Snapshot copies that span multiple storage system volumes or multiple storage systems. The storage entities and volumes can reside on the same storage system or different storage systems.

Use this command to disconnect any of the following:

The disconnect operation does not modify the connected Snapshot copy. However, by default, the operation does delete any temporary LUNs or clones created by the corresponding connect operation.

Note: For LUNs, file systems on LUNs, and LVM entities, this command is equivalent to snapdrive storage delete.
