Taking and Scheduling Snapshots
To take or schedule a snapshot:
1. Click the Snapshot tab The Snapshot screen will display.
You can specify how often a snapshot should be taken. Snapshots can be scheduled in intervals
from once every 4 hours to once a week.
2. Specify the frequency and the days that you wish to schedule a snapshot:
• If you specify a start and end time of 00:00, ReadyNAS will take one snapshot at
midnight. A start time of 00:00 and an end time of 23:00 will set snapshots to be taken
between midnight and 11 pm the next day at the interval you specify. Once you save the
snapshot schedule, the time of the next snapshot is displayed. When the next snapshot is
taken, the previous one is replaced.
• If you prefer, you can manually take a snapshot by clicking Take Snapshot Now.
Note: If you do not see a Snapshot tab within your volume tab, you did not reserve any
space for snapshots when you added the volume. The ReadyNAS Pro Business
Edition ships with a snapshot reserved space of 10 GB.
