snapGroup

The name of the snapshot group for which you are setting properties. Enclose the snapshot group name in double quotation marks (" ") inside of square brackets ([ ]).

autoDeleteLimit

The maximum number of snapshot images that you want to automatically delete if you have selected to purge the snapshot images for a repository full policy. Use integer values. The default value is 32.

rollBackPriority

Use this parameter to determine whether system resources should be allocated to the rollback operation at the expense of system performance. Valid values are highest, high, medium, low, or lowest A value of high indicates that the rollback operation is prioritized over all other host I/O. A value of lowest indicates that the rollback operation should be performed with minimal impact to host I/O.
