Prior to SRA release 10.0.1, there is no support for SnapVX targetless gold copies. The SRA uses the legacy functionality provided by the XML files which requires creating and supplying target devices. A gold copy, therefore, results in a clone or linked snapshot. If the user wishes to take targetless snapshots instead, it is possible to script their creation and then add that script to the recovery plan. While the script tasks would be the same regardless of platform, the implementation varies slightly between Windows and the Appliance so both will be covered below.
