Managing your Server Recovery Option snapshots
If you configured snapshots in your connection through the Management Console, that snapshots will be reflected in the
Recovery Manager Snapshot Manager. (The Snapshot Manager (
Actions, Snapshot Manager) is only available when a target
image server and a recovery server are selected in the Recovery Manager.)
If you want to take a snapshot manually, click
Take Snapshot. If you no longer want to keep a snapshot, you can delete it by
highlighting the snapshot in the
Existing Snapshots list and clicking Delete Snapshot. To help you understand the snapshots,
use the
Type and Status columns. The Status indicates the state of the connection between the source and target at the time
the snapshot was taken. the Type information is displayed in the following table.
Ty p e Description
Scheduled This snapshot was taken as part of a periodic snapshot.
Deferred This snapshot was taken as part of a periodic snapshot, although it did not occur at the specified
interval because the connection between the source and target was not in a good state.
User Request This snapshot was taken manually by a user.
NOTE: The Existing Snapshots list only contains snapshots from Server Recovery Option. Snapshots from other
utilities and tools will not be listed.
