To take or schedule a snapshot, click on the
Snapshot
tab.
Note
If you do not see a Snapshot tab within your volume tab, you did not
reserve any space for snapshots when you added the volume. The
ReadyNAS ships with a snapshot reserved space of 5 GB.
In the tab, you can specify how often a snapshot should be taken. Snapshots can be scheduled in
intervals from once every 4 hours to once a week.
Specify the frequency and the days that you wish to schedule a snapshot. A start and end-time of
00:00 will take one snapshot at midnight. A start time of 00:00 and end-time of 23:00 will take
snapshots between midnight and 11pm the next day at the interval you specify. Once you save the
snapshot schedule, the time of the next snapshot will be displayed. When the next snapshot is
taken, the previous one is replaced.
If you prefer, you can manually take a snapshot – just click on
Take snapshot now
.
