What is cpqExtArrSnapshotType?

This enumerated value reports the snapshot's underlying technology type, as other or cow (copy on write). An admin checks this to understand the storage mechanism behind a snapshot, since copy-on-write snapshots have different performance and resource-pool-consumption characteristics than other techniques. For example, confirming cow(2) type tells the admin that ongoing writes to the source volume will incrementally consume this snapshot's resource pool space.
