Guarding a Snapshot
Guard a snapshot held in a snapshot-volume. The function guards the snapshot against the
snapshot creation and deletion operations. Also, the guarded snapshot is excluded from the
snapshot cyclic creation operation.
Display the Snapshot Guard screen using one of the following procedures.
• Select a snapshot-volume from the information list display area. Then, from the menu
bar of the snapshot management screen, select [Operation] - [Snapshot Operation] -
[Snapshot Guard].
• Select a snapshot-volume from the information list display area. Then, right-click on
the mouse and select [Snapshot Guard].
From the list, select the snapshot-volume whose snapshot you want to guard, and then click
the [Execute] button.
You can specify two or more volumes at a time and execute the operation for all of them
simultaneously.
Unexecutable volumes cannot be selected.
Selected Volume List
This part of the screen displays a list of the information about the snapshot-volume selected
from the information list display area.
If "Unexecutable" is shown in the[ Execution Result] field, the volume does not meet the
execution conditions and therefore cannot be selected.
If there is any unexecutable volume, refer to the [Unexecutable Information] and take one of
the following actions.
