Example The following command displays the list of volume attributes that you can change: pstcli -destination 10.55.34.87 -u admin -p MyPassword456! /volume set -? volume { -id | -name } set [ -name ] [ -description ] [ -size ] [ -expiration_timestamp ] [ -protection_policy_id ] [ -performance_policy_id ] [ -is_replication_destination { yes | true | no | false } ] [ -async ] Modify the parameters of a volume. Where: [Choice] { -id | -name } -id Unique identifier of the volume to modify. -name Reference object (volume) by name. [Optional] -name New name of the volume. This value must contain 128 or fewer printable Unicode characters. [Optional] -description New description of the volume. This value must contain 128 or fewer printable Unicode characters. [Optional] -size New size of the volume in bytes, must be a multiple of 8192, must be bigger than the current volume size. Maximum volume size is 256TB. [Optional] -expiration_timestamp New expiration time of the snapshot. Expired snapshots are deleted by the snapshot aging service that runs periodically in the background. If not specified, the snapshot never expires. Use a maximum timestamp value to set an expiration to never expire. [Optional] -protection_policy_id Unique identifier of the protection policy assigned to the volume. [Optional] -performance_policy_id Unique identifier of the performance policy assigned to the volume. [Optional] -is_replication_destination { yes | true | no | false } New value for is_replication_destination property. The modification is only supported for primary and clone volume, only when the current value is true and there is no longer a replication session using this volume as a destination, and only to false. 12 Introduction
