Parameters
Parameter |
Description |
|---|---|
[differential | plex] |
Specifies to the provider the type of shadow copy to create. |
[transportable] |
Specifies that the shadow copy is not to be imported yet. The metadata .cab file can later be used to import the shadow copy to the same or a different computer. |
[rollbackrecover] |
Signals writers to use autorecover during the PostSnapshot event. This is useful if the shadow copy will be used for rollback (for example, with data mining). |
[txfrecover] |
Requests VSS to make the shadow copy transactionally consistent during creation. |
[noautorecover] |
Stops writers and the file system from performing any recovery changes to the shadow copy to a transactionally consistent state. Noautorecover cannot be used with txfrecover or rollbackrecover. |
