Schedule Snapshot Task

[mhubert]

Hi SJ,

I have the same problems like budy.
One snapshot is scheduled to be activated/renewed every day at 20:00.

If I press the green play button before 20:00, the snapshot is started but never renewed at 20:00. The task status shows the start time of the manual activation.

If i do not press the play button, the snapshot is activated correctly at 20:00 but never renewed and the task shows the start time of the first activation at 20:00.

Regards
Matthias

Hi Matthias,

yes, I second that. I have tried that three times and I never could get it to work.
I wanted to go live with my setup in Jan. but it seems that I can't.

Thats's really a pity.

Cheers,

Dear Budy,

As we mentioned earlier it works in our labs, I am sure we are missing something here. Can you download the logs and send it to support@open-e.com.

Hi SJ,

right. I have setup my volumes again, since I felt that I messed something up along my way, when I was playing around, but I will now recreate my replication setup and monitor it closely.

I will setup two snapshot schedules:

a) each weekday at 0:00, no end time
b) each saturday at 0:00, no end time

Will this be a problem? Unfortuanetly, I cannot have a schedule that runs for exactly two days, say from Sat. 0:00 until Sun 23:59, can I?

The snapshot are for backing up the target volume and will be mounted ro on my backup server.

If this setup is okay, then I will proceed and watch out for any issues that are related to the problems I had and send the logs to support.

Cheers,
budy

Hi all,

since I cannot get it to work, I now have e-mailed supportœopen-e.com with a complete log. Maybe they can tackle this.
