Create method
Returnuint32 {'out':True}
Parameters
NameCIMTypeIDINOUTQualifiers
Volumestring0-{'Description':'This parameter is the volume that is used for the shadow copy. This volume is sometimes referred to as the 'original' volume. This parameter can be specified as a volume drive letter, mount point or volume GUID name.','in':True}
Contextstring1-{'Description':'This parameter is the context that the provider will use when creating the shadow.','in':True}
ShadowIDstring2-{'out':True}
Description'Creates a shadow copy using the specified context.'
Values['Success', 'Access denied', 'Invalid argument', 'Specified volume not found', 'Specified volume not supported', 'Unsupported shadow copy context', 'Insufficient storage', 'Volume is in use', 'Maximum number of shadow copies reached', 'Another shadow copy operation is already in progress', 'Shadow copy provider vetoed the operation', 'Shadow copy provider not registered', 'Shadow copy provider failure', 'Unknown error']

Revert method
Returnuint32 {'out':True}
Parameters
NameCIMTypeIDINOUTQualifiers
ForceDismountboolean0-{'Description':'This parameter is used to force the original volume to dismount before starting the revert operation. Forcing a volume to dismount forces all open handles to files on the volume to be closed. Applications holding open handles will likely be returned an error code on subsequent operations performed on the handles. If the flag is set to false and some application has an open handle to a file on the volume, then revert will fail with 'Volume is in use'.','in':True}
Description'Reverts the original storage volume to this shadow copy. After Revert is done, the original volume will be identical to this shadow copy and every newer shadow copy will be deleted. You cannot cancel or undo the revert operation - any data written to the original volume after the shadow copy was created will be lost!'
