Protection Features
XEVO provides protection group functionality for binding one or some volumes. These volumes
can perform data backup services at the same time with some simple settings. In addition to
the basic functions of snapshots, local cloning, and remote replication, there are new designs
and are described below.
7.1.1.
About Snapshot
Enable Snapshot Space Automatically
A volume snapshot is based on copy-on-write technology. Snapshots require more space to
hold differential data. When the schedule function is enabled, all volumes belonging to the
protection group will automatically enable snapshot space. The default snapshot space is 10%
of the volume capacity. You can also enter the
Snapshot Center
of the volume and customize it.
Recycle Snapshots
Snapshot recycle bin can restore or permanently destroy the snapshots. It offers additional
protection for backup from accidentally or deliberately deleting of a snapshot.
