Tips and references about FlashSnap

Use related disk group names. For example, when doing off-host processing from the GUI, use "database" for the original disk group name and "database_snap" for the snapshot disk group name.

When using FlashSnap with a database application, store all database files and related transaction logs on disks contained within a single dynamic disk group.

For easy identification, the volumes within a disk group should begin with the name of the disk group. For example: DiskGroup1_VolumeName1, DiskGroup1_VolumeName2, DiskGroup1_VolumeName3, and so on.

For more information on FlashSnap, see the Storage Foundation Administrator's Guide.
