Scheduling snapshots

You can schedule snapshots of your target data to fit your environment and needs. If the
target data is in a bad state at the time of a scheduled snapshot, the snapshot will be
delayed until the data on the target reaches a good state. If multiple scheduled
snapshots are delayed, only one snapshot will be taken when the data reaches a good
state.

every hour.
