Snapshots

The Data Protection - Snapshot page lists all the snapshot schedules on the system and allows you to add or modify snapshots.

Note: A snapshot can only be added when a Volume has been created.

Estimating snapshot volume requirements

When estimating the snapshot volume requirements, the following considerations should be made:

•Allocate 10% of available space if

•Activity on the SNAZ is write light

•Write access is concentrated in a few places.

•Allocate 25% of available space if

•Activity on the SNAZ is write heavy

•Write access is not concentrated, but is randomised across the volumes.
