• If both of the retention time and expiration time are specified, the retention time cannot be greater than the expiration time. • The retention time can be set in hours or days. The minimum retention time is 1 hour and the maximum retention time is 43800 hours (1,825 days or 5 years). The default is 336 hours (14 days). The vvMaxRetentionTime system parameter determines the maximum retention. This parameter can be set with the setsys command. • The maximum retention time for a volume in a domain can be set during domain creation with the createdomain command, or applied to an existing domain with the setdomain command. • If the volume belongs to a domain, then the volume retention time cannot exceed the domain's maximum retention time. • A volume with remaining retention time cannot be removed until the end of the retention period. You can use the -retain option to set volume retention times while issuung the following commands: • createvv • setvv • createsv • creategroupsv To create a virtual volume that cannot be deleted for a specified number of hours, issue the createvv -retain d|D|h|H -snp_cpg command, where: • -retain d|D|h|H specifies that the volume cannot be removed from the system for the specified number of hours or days. The value for must be a positive integer in the range of 1 hour to 43,800 hours (1,825 days). The value for can be specified in days with d|D or hours with h|H. For example, 14d specifies 14 days. • is the name of the CPG from which the volume will draw its snapshot space and administration space. • is the name of the CPG from which the created virtual volume will draw its user space. • is the name of the volume being created. The name can be up to 31 characters. • is the size of the volume in MB, GB, or TB. If g|G|t|T is not specified, VV_size is the number of MBs. For example, 50g specifies 50 GBs.
