Store System State Protection Properties

You may set the following properties on the Replica server to manage system state snapshot storage:

Copies to keep

Specify the number of System State snapshots to keep on the Replica. The default value is eight. For an unlimited number of snapshots, enter a zero. If the number of snapshots exceeds the set value, the oldest snapshots are deleted to make space for subsequent snapshots.

Max Total Disk Size (MB)

Specify the total amount of disk space to allocate for System State snapshots.

Default Values by Operating System:

• Windows 2003: 8192
• Windows 2008: 16,384

For an unlimited amount of space, enter a zero. If snapshots fill the space allocated, the oldest snapshots are deleted to make space for subsequent snapshots.

Note: Arcserve RHA checks the Copies to Keep and Max Total Disk Size settings periodically, not at scenario start.

Min Disk Free Size (MB)

Specify the minimum amount of free disk space for System State snapshots. The default value is 1024. If the free disk space is less than the set value, the oldest snapshots are deleted to ensure that the minimum free disk space value is maintained.

Directory

Specify the directory where the System State snapshot is stored.
