About configuring VxVM
For Instant Recovery backups of the data that is configured on VxVM volumes on Windows, the VxVM volume names must be 12 characters or fewer. Otherwise, the backup fails.
Before you run an Instant Recovery policy to back up VxVM volumes, one or more mirrors must be created. The primary volumes must be enabled for FastResync. Note that on Windows, FastResync is enabled by default.
