At Time splits with Shadowimage and/or TrueCopy use Timestamps to initiate
the split and create consistency. There is no blockade of writes for "a few
seconds" while all the volumes are split.
Ron, you are right, ShadowImage doesn't operate quite the same as IBM
FlashCopy and EMC Consistent split/snap.
Do you know if the ShadowImage Flashcopy feature operates like the IBM
Consistent Flash, in that it does suspend I/O?
