CMMVC8782E: The volume copy was not deleted because the copy has an image mode mdisk and a change volume is providing the consistent image.

Explanation

A volume copy cannot be deleted when a change volume is in use.

User Response

First, verify that you specified the correct volume copy. If not, retry the command with a volume copy that does not have an image mode MDisk.

If you specified the correct volume copy, complete one of the following tasks:
  • Wait for the use of the change volume to complete and then retry the command.
  • Specify the -discardimage parameter to force-delete the volume copy. A forced deletion can result in data loss on the image mode copy.
