Adding snapshot volumes to a refresh schedule

Last published : Jul 06, 2026
To keep the data in the snapshot volume up-to-date, you can perform periodic refreshing of the snapshot volume. The Management Server console lets you create schedules for the volume snapshot refresh operation and also add a volume snapshot to the existing schedule that you have configured for volume snapshot refresh
You cannot perform this operation on a Windows host.
To perform this task, your user group must be assigned the Admin role on the host or the Server perspective. The permission on the host may be explicitly assigned or inherited from a parent Organization.
To add a volume snapshot to a refresh schedule
  1. In the Management Server console, go to the Server perspective and expand Manage in the left pane.
  2. Expand the Organization or Uncategorized Hosts to locate the host.
  3. Expand the host and select Volumes.
  4. Right-click on the required snapshot volume and select Snapshot>Schedule>Add to existing schedule.
  5. In the Add to existing schedule wizard panel, select the schedule from the list. Click Finish.
  1. In the Result panel, verify that the selected volume snapshot has been added to the schedule successfully.
