How to create a new volume to retain more Snapshot copies

If you need to create a new volume to retain more Snapshot copies than the maximum allowed, you can do so in one of the two ways—by creating a volume clone or by copying a Snapshot copy.

• Create a clone of the volume and continue running SnapVault updates to the new volume.
• Copy one Snapshot copy in the volume to a new volume and continue running SnapVault updates to the new volume.
  Note: If you are using a version of Open Systems SnapVault prior to version 2.2, you cannot retain more than 255 SnapVault Snapshot copies without a new baseline. Open Systems SnapVault versions prior to 2.2 do not support the snapvault start -r command, which is needed to restart SnapVault relationships on the new volume. This command is supported on Open Systems SnapVault version 2.2 and later.
