IBV-"Clean Up Log Directory" & "Create Sn

[broman]

1. Is there a CLI, batch file or any other sort of mechanism that will allow me to script/schedule "Clean Up Log Directory" and "Create Snapshot" without having to go to the GUI and do it manually?

2. What does the IBV size represent, the size reported as the hard drive size from the OS using the volume or is it the physical size of the IBV volume (including sessions) on the Starwind hard drive?

Hi.

1. No.
Use "Limit maximum number of stored snap-shots" and "Use auto snapshot creation" features.

2. IBVolume plugin enables you to create virtual file-based targets with advanced functionality. Unlike the basic ImageFile device target, IBVolume target does not allocate all required space on a hard drive at once. IBVolume target allocates required space as the user adds data on it.
IBV size represent, the size reported as the hard drive size from the OS using the volume.
