The primary snapshot creation process for application-managed snapshots differs only when an

application has associated volumes. Associated volumes are two or more volumes used by an

application (volume set).

For example, you may set up Exchange to use two volumes to support a StorageGroup: one for

mailbox data and one for logs. Those two volumes make a volume set.

When you create an application-managed snapshot of a volume in a volume set, the CMC recognizes

that the volume is part of a volume set. The CMC then prompts you to create a snapshot for each

volume in the volume set. This creates a snapshot set that corresponds to the volume set. To see any

associated snapshots, select a snapshot, click the Details tab, and then look at the Snapshot Set field.

For information about the requirements for application-managed snapshots, see the HP StorageWorks

P4000 SAN Solution user guide or online help.
