Command Example

nlvm list snaps more

Print a list of all snapshots and detailed information about each one.

Response Parameters

You can issue the commands with the --terse NLVM option to output the same information in a format that is more easily parsed.

Standard Output

The command returns the following information about the pool snapshots on the server:

Label	Description
Name	Name of the snapshot
Pool	Name of the pool being snapped
Mounted	Yes or No; whether the snapshot is mounted as a pool
Size	Size of the pool in MB, GB, or TB
Shared	Yes or No; whether the snapshot’s device is marked as Shareable for Clustering. Typically, No, because snapshots are not supported for clustered pools at this time.

More Output

The command returns the following additional information about the pool snapshots on the server:

Label	Description
PoolSize	Source pool in KB, MB, GB, or TB
Chunk	Snapshot chunk size in KB (ex: 128)
Full	Percent of space on the partition that is used for copy-on-write-data
PartSize	Partition size in MB, GB, or TB, and the number of whole sectors in that space
Partition	Name of the partition for the snapshot

All Output

If the all option is specified, the information returned for each pool snapshot is the same as for the nlvm list snap <snap_name> command.
