Configuring snapshot settings

Complete the following steps to configure snapshot settings:
  1. From the iSCSI storage host drop-down list, select the server on which to mount the snapshot. If you do not want to mount the snapshot, select None.

    Note: If you have multiple volumes in your snapshot set, they all must be mounted or unmounted. If you mount the snapshots, they all must be mounted on the same server. The pools list (on the right) shows the pool in which the snapshot will be created.

  2. To mount the snapshot:
    1. From the Drive letter drop-down list, select drive on which to mount the snapshot, or enter the full path to an empty directory, such as L:\mydir; the directory must already exist.

    2. From the Access type drop-down list, choose Read only or Read/Write.

      Note: When you create a snapshot with read/write access it no longer operates under VSS control. However, you still can use Adaptec Storage Manager to manage the snapshot, such as deleting the snapshot.
  3. If you are copying multiple volumes, click the appropriate volume tab; then, repeat steps 1-3.

  4. When you are ready to continue, click Next. The "Configuration summary" window opens.
