Crash consistent storage snapshot SAPHANA-SH1-CrashConsistency.1 created

As the snapshot is created without any application awareness, there is no entry in the SAP HANA catalog for it.

As seen in the FlashArray web user interface a Protection Group is created for the instance and the relevant volumes are added to it before being a snapshot is created.
