Hi,
This is the info I have from Mice from sometime last year, not sure if it
is relevant. Sadly, I am unable to attach the original HTML message, I
will forward it off the list to you
==================
1) When a VM is created, the root volume and data volume are just
single node in storage
2) After take a Disk Snapshot, leaf nodes are created as current
volume (this is vmware case), their parents nodes are not active and are a
part of snapshots.
Two usage events are generated, since there are two volumes for
this VM.
Usage event: VMSnapshot, volumeId:root; vmid: xxxx; size: sizeOf(Root)
VMSnapshot, VolumeId:data; vmid:xxxx; size: sizeOf(Data)
3) After take a DiskMemory Snapshot:
Two usage events are generated,.
Usage event: VMSnapshot, volumeId:root; vmid: xxxx; size: sizeOf(Root) +
sizeOf(ROOT-00001) + sizeOf(memoryImage)
VMSnapshot, VolumeId:data; vmid:xxxx; size: sizeOf(Data) +
sizeOf(Data-00001)
Please note the size in usage event is CURRENT chain size of a volume.
