Scheduling a snapshot

To schedule a snapshot:

Caution: System performance may degrade while a snapshot is

being performed. Snapshots should be scheduled appropriately

to minimise user impact.

1 From the menu bar, select Data Protection - Snapshots.

2 Click on . The Data Protection - Snapshot - Add

page opens.

From this page you need to:

• Select Volume - Choose a Volume to make the snapshot

of from the drop down list

• Mount Point - By default snapshots are kept in the

snapshot folder in each volume. If required, specify a

location (directory) for the Snapshot within the snapshot

directory, which will then automatically be created

• Initial Size - Select an initial size for the snapshot and if

required, tick the Grow Automatically box to change the

snapshot size as required.

• Keep Snapshot - Select whether to keep the snapshot

Forever or For ... Days from the drop down list(s).

Note: A maximum of 5 snapshots may be scheduled every day.

However, only 4 snapshots will be preserved by the system at any

one time in order to maintain reasonable system performance.
