Re: Missed Snapshots

kevin_marchant · ‎2015-02-23

Am I right in assuming that scheduled snapshots are only created if the ReadyNAS is powered up at midnight local time ?

I have two ReadyNAS 316's and the snapshot history on both appears sporadic - even though the shares are configured for daily frequency. I do power the devices down overnight.

If my assumption is correct, it would be really useful if there were a "Run task as soon as possible after a scheduled start is missed" option.

Any views @mdgm @skywalker.

Daily snapshots are set to occur at midnight daily. If the NAS is powered off the snapshot will not be taken. See http://kb.netgear.com/app/answers/detail/a_id/24478/~/readynas-os6-smart-snapshot-management

Thanks. Would be really handy if there was a "Run task as soon as possible after scheduled start is missed" option. Perhaps in a future release.
