IVssProviderCreateSnapshotSet::PostCommitSnapshots method (vsprov.h)

  • Article

The PostCommitSnapshots method is called after all providers involved in the shadow copy set have succeeded with CommitSnapshots. The lock on the I/O system has been lifted, but the applications have not yet been unfrozen. This is an opportunity for the provider to perform additional cleanup work after the shadow copy commit.

Syntax

HRESULT PostCommitSnapshots(
  [in] VSS_ID SnapshotSetId,
  [in] LONG   lSnapshotsCount
);

Parameters

[in] SnapshotSetId

The VSS_ID that identifies the shadow copy set.

[in] lSnapshotsCount

Count of shadow copies in the shadow copy set.
