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.
