3.9.4.2 List Volume Clones

An Exascale volume clone is a thinly-provisioned read-write point-in-time copy of a volume snapshot.

To display information about existing volumes, including volume clones, use the ESCLI lsvolume command. To focus on volume clones, look for volumes that contain a value for the volumeSnapshot attribute. For example:

@> lsvolume --detail --filter volumeSnapshot!=""

Without any other arguments or command options, the example command displays detailed information about all of the volume clones associated with the Exascale cluster.

Using the other command options available with the lsvolume command, you can:

• Display information about specific volumes or volume clones.
• Filter the output according to your specified conditions.
• Sort the output using specific attributes.
• Choose to display output with different levels of detail.
