volume snapshot modify-snaplock-expiry-time

Modify expiry time of a SnapLock Snapshot copy

Availability: This command is available to cluster and Vserver administrators at the admin privilege level.

Description​

The volume snapshot modify-snapshot-expiry-time extends snaplock expiry time of an existing Snapshot copy.

Parameters​

-vserver <vserver name> - Vserver
This specifies the Vserver that contains the volume on which the Snapshot copy is located.
-volume <volume name> - Volume
This specifies the volume where a Snapshot copy is to be located.
-snapshot <text> - Snapshot
This specifies the name of the Snapshot copy locked by SnapLock whose snaplock expiry time needs to be modified.
[-expiry-time {MM/DD/YYYY HH:MM:SS [{+|-}hh:mm] | infinite}] - SnapLock Expiry Time

Specifies the new snaplock expiry that is applied to Snapshot copy locked by SnapLock.

If this option value is infinite, then a retention period that never expires is applied to the Snapshot copy.

Examples​

The following example extends the retention period of a Snapshot copy snap1 to "03/03/2020 00:00:00":

            cluster1::> volume snapshot modify-snaplock-expiry-time -vserver vs1 -volume vol1 -snapshot snap1 -expiry-time "03/03/2020 00:00:00"
            cluster1::>

The following example extends the retention period of a Snapshot copy snap2 to infinite:

             cluster1::>  volume snapshot modify-snaplock-expiry-time -vserver vs1 -volume vol1 -snapshot snap2 -expiry-time infinite
             cluster1::>
         
             cluster1::> volume snapshot show -vserver vs1 -fields snaplock-expiry-time
             vserver volume snapshot snaplock-expiry-time
