The FlashCopy mapping is now ready for use. It is visible in the three different windows: 
FlashCopy, FlashCopy mappings, and Consistency Groups.
11.2.4  Single-click snapshot
The snapshot creates a point-in-time backup of production data. The snapshot is not intended 
to be an independent copy. Instead, it is used to maintain a view of the production data at the 
time that the snapshot is created. Therefore, the snapshot holds only the data from regions of 
the production volume that changed since the snapshot was created. Because the snapshot 
preset uses thin provisioning, only the capacity that is required for the changes is used. 
Snapshot uses the following preset parameters:
/SM590000Background copy: No
/SM590000Incremental: No
/SM590000Delete after completion: No
/SM590000Cleaning rate: No
/SM590000Primary copy source pool: Target pool
Note: If you selected multiple source volumes to create FlashCopy mappings, if you select 
Inherit properties from source Volume, it applies to each created target volume. For 
example, if you selected a compressed volume and a generic volume as sources for the 
new FlashCopy mappings, the system creates a compressed target and a generic target.
