 When the snapshot reserve is set to a value greater than 0%, this reserved space will be
dedicated entirely to snapshots. The free space in a storage pool will be lower after the
value is set and the snapshots will only use the space reserved. When the space used for
snapshots exceeds the snapshot reserve, the system will start recycling older snapshots
regardless the snapshot limitation set in Snapshot Global Settings.
To set snapshot reservation, follow these steps:
1. Go to "Storage Manager" > "STORAGE" > "Storage Space".
2. Double click a storage pool to set reserved space for snapshots and to bring up the
Storage Pool Management page.
3. Click "Actions" > "Set Snapshot Reserved", enter a value for snapshot reserved space,
and click "Apply".
