Creating Immediate Checkpoints
You can choose whether to schedule a checkpoint or create one immediately. See
“Scheduling Checkpoints” on page 23 for information on setting up a regular
checkpoint schedule.
In the Manage Checkpoints panel, you can create immediate checkpoints as well as
rename and remove existing ones. Unlike scheduled checkpoints, which you create
at a pre-determined day and time, you can create immediate checkpoints at any
time.
To Create an Immediate Checkpoint
You can configure a checkpoint immediately instead of on a time schedule.
To create a new checkpoint manually:
1. To create a checkpoint, you must enable checkpoints for the file volume. If you
have not already enabled checkpoints, do so:
a. In the navigation panel, select File Volume Operations > Edit Properties.
b. Click the Volume Name drop-down list and select the volume on which you
want to enable checkpoints.
c. Be sure the Enable Checkpoints box is checked ( ). By default, this box is
checked. If not, select the box and click Apply.
2. In the navigation panel, select File Volume Operations > Configure Checkpoints >
Manage Checkpoints.
