NETGEAR ReadyNAS User Guide

After the snapshot is taken, if changes on the volume exceed this reserved space, the snapshot is invalidated and can no longer be used.

Note: Changes that occupy space in the reserved snapshot space include new file creation, modifications, and deletions; for instance, any time you delete a 1MB file,

the change caused by the deletion uses up 1MB of reserved space.

When the snapshot does become invalidated, an e-mail alert is sent and the status reflected on the Snapshot screen. The snapshot is no longer usable at this stage.

Resizing Snapshot Space

If you are constantly getting snapshot invalidation alerts, you might want to either increase the frequency of the snapshot or consider increasing the reserved snapshot space. To do this, or to eliminate your existing snapshot space (thus increasing your usable volume space), you can specify the snapshot space you want in the Snapshot Space section. Simply select a value from the pull-down menu and click Save. Your snapshot space will be limited to approximately 100GB.

Resizing the snapshot space will occur offline and can take a while depending on your data volume size and the number of files in your volume. Expanding the snapshot space reduces your data volume size, and reducing the snapshot space expands it.

Note: Because of the way snapshots work, you will encounter a drop in write performance when a snapshot is active. If your environment requires the highest throughput in performance, the active snapshot should be deleted, or you should set a limit on how long the snapshot should be live.

USB Storage

The USB tab displays the USB disk and flash devices connected to the ReadyNAS, and offers various options for these devices. A flash device appears as USB_FLASH_1 and a disk device appears as USB_HDD_1. If you have multiple devices, they appear appended by an increasing
