• To delete all currently stored recovery points, click Delete All .
• To delete a set of recovery points in a specific data range, click Delete Range . The Delete dialog
box appears. In the Delete Range dialog box, specify the range of recovery points that you want
to delete by using a start date and time and an end date and time, and then click Delete .
Deleting an orphaned recovery point chain
An orphaned recovery point is an incremental snapshot that is not associated with a base image.
Subsequent snapshots continue to build onto this recovery point. Without the base image, the resulting
recovery points are incomplete and are unlikely to contain the data needed to complete a recovery.
These recovery points are considered to be part of the orphaned recovery point chain. If this situation
occurs, the best solution is to delete the chain and create a new base image. For more information about
forcing a base image, see Forcing a Snapshot .
NOTE: The ability to delete an orphaned recovery chain is not available for replicated recovery
points on a target core.
To delete an orphaned recovery point chain:
1. On the Core Console, select the protected machine for which you want to delete the orphaned
recovery point chain.
2. Click the Recovery Points tab.
3. Under Recovery Points , expand the orphaned recovery point.
This recovery point is labeled in the Type column as Incremental Orphaned .
4. Next to Actions , click Delete .
The Delete Recovery Points window appears.
5. In the Delete Recovery Points window, click Yes .
CAUTION: Deleting this recovery point deletes the entire chain of recovery points, including
any incremental recovery points that occur before or after it, until the next base image. This
operation cannot be undone.
Forcing a snapshot
Forcing a snapshot lets you force a data transfer for the current protected machine. When you force a
snapshot, the transfer starts immediately or is added to the queue. Only the data that has changed from a
previous recovery point is transferred. If there is no previous recovery point, all data on the protected
volumes is transferred, referred to as a base image.
To force a snapshot:
1. In the Core Console, select the machine or cluster with the recovery point for which you want to
force a snapshot.
2. Click the Summary tab in the Volumes section, and then select one of the options described as
follows:
•
Force Snapshot — Takes an incremental snapshot of data updated since the last snapshot was
taken.
• Force Base Image — Takes a complete snapshot of all data on the volumes of the machine.
3. When the notification is displayed in the Transfer Status dialog box that the snapshot has been
queued, click OK .
A progress bar appears next to the machine in the Machines tab and displays the progress of the
snapshot.
