Modify a Snapshot Schedule

You can modify an existing snapshot schedule in the vSphere Client with the Oracle vSphere Plug-In for Oracle Flash Storage Systems.

A snapshot schedule controls how often to take snapshots of a datastore. You can modify the frequency at which snapshots are created, or you can enable or disable the snapshot schedule.
  1. In vSphere, select Datastores and Datastore Clusters.
  2. In the vSphere inventory tree, select a datastore containing non-clone LUNs from a single Oracle FS System.
    This datastore can be the one for which you want to modify a snapshot schedule, or the datacenter containing the datastore for which you want to modify a snapshot schedule.
  3. Right-click the datastore or datacenter and select Manage Oracle FS Storage > Manage Snapshot Schedules.
    Result:The Manage Snapshot Schedules page displays a list of the existing snapshot schedules.
  4. Provide authentication credentials for the vCenter server, if you have not already provided them.
  5. Provide authentication credentials for the Oracle FS System, if you have not already provided them.
  6. From the listed schedules, select the schedule you want to modify and then click Modify Schedule.
  7. Make any necessary changes to the schedule in the Modify Snapshot Schedule page.
  8. Click OK to save changes to the schedule.
  9. Click Done to leave the Manage Snapshot Schedules page.
