SOFTRestore
Determines whether to unlink the snapshot which has been linked (restored) back to the source device on which the snapshot was originally created.
Since a source device can be both the linked target of a separate device, and the linked target of its own snapshot simultaneously, specifying the SOFTRESTORE parameter clarifies which linked snapshot to unlink.
The SOFTRestore parameter can be specified on the GLOBAL and UNLINK commands. It has a matching site option &SOFTRESTORE.
Syntax
SOFTRestore({Yes|No})
Options
- Yes
- Unlinks a logical restore operation where a snapshot has the same source and target device.
- No
- (Default) Unlinks a snapshot which has a different source and target device.
