snapshots is greater, the amount of the reserve should be greater. Or, if there is a heavy amount of
activity on the volume, set a higher reserve.
To create a snapshot for a volume:
1. From the
Manager Menu
, click
Storage
Snapshots.
The
Storage Snapshots
page appears.
2. From the
New Snapshot
table, click the volume for which you are creating the snapshot.
3. Depending on the frequency, use the first part of the
Every
field to enter a unit of time. Tab to the
second part of the
Every
field, and then click the snapshot frequency (that is, hours or days). For
example, set the first part of the field to “7”, and the second part to “Days” to take a snapshot
once every week.
4. Use the
At:
fields to set up the timing for the snapshot. For example, if the frequency is set to
Days, set the hour and minute of the day at which you want the snapshot to be taken.
Note:
When entering the hour, use the 24-hour clock. For example, 3 p.m. should be entered as
15:00. When the frequency is set to Hours, you can only edit the minutes part of the
At:
field.
NOTE:
This feature is only available on NSS6000 series
NAS units.
