Deskripsi

FlashArray allows for protection groups (pgroups) to be created. These pgroups can be attached to hosts and volumes in order to schedule the creation and replication of snapshots for the purpose of data protection. Additionally, pgroups may be ratcheted to enable a feature known as SafeMode. Manual review in the Purity//FA GUI or CLI (organization-specific or per-object evidence).
