Applying Replay Profiles to Volumes
Because all Storage Center systems come with two common default Replay Profiles, Daily
and Sample, you are not required to create any custom Replay Profiles. To create a custom
Replay Profile, refer to Creating Replay Profiles on page 292.
Standard Default Daily Replay Profile
The rules for the Standard Default Daily Replay Profile are as follows:
• The standard default Daily Replay Profile takes a Replay once a day at one minute past
midnight (12:01 AM) of all volumes to which the Replay Profile is attached.
• Each Replay will automatically expire in one week.
Standard Default Sample Replay Profile
The standard default Sample Replay Profile takes three Replays for all volumes to which
the Replay Profile is attached. The rules for the Standard Default Sample Replay Profile are
as follows:
• A Replay is taken twice every day (weekends included). The first Replay is taken at 5
minutes after midnight (12:05 AM). The second daily Replay is taken 12 hours later, but
not between the four hours of 6:00 PM and 12:05 AM. Each Replay is automatically
expired 5 days later.
• In addition to the twice-daily Replays, the Sample Replay Profile instructs Storage
Center to take a Replay once a week on Saturday at 11:30 PM. The weekly Replay is
automatically expired after 5 weeks.
• In addition to the twice-daily and weekly Replays, the Sample Replay Profile instructs
Storage Center to take a Replay once a month on the first day of the month (for example,
January 1, February 1, and so forth). The monthly Replay is automatically expired after
26 weeks.
Applying an Existing Replay Profile to One or More Volumes
