2. Specify the frequency and the days that you want to schedule a snapshot:
When start and end times are set to 00:00, ReadyNAS takes one snapshot at midnight. A
start time of 00:00 and an end time of 23:00 sets snapshots to be taken between midnight
and 11 p.m. the next day at the interval you specify.
Once you save the snapshot schedule, the time of the next snapshot displays. When the
next snapshot is taken, it replaces the previous one.
You can take manual snapshots at any time by clicking the Take snapshot now button.
You can also specify how long a snapshot should last. If you use snapshots for backups,
schedule the snapshot to last slightly longer than the expected duration of the backup.
Having an active snapshot can affect the write performance to the ReadyNAS, so
deactivating snapshots when not needed might be advantageous in write-intensive
environments.
