Creating shadow copies

Creating shadow copies

To create a shadow copy on an NTFS volume with shared folders, follow these steps:

1. Open Computer Management. If necessary, connect to a remote computer.

2. In the console tree, expand Storage, and then select Disk Management. The volumes configured on the selected computer are displayed in the details pane.

3. Press and hold or right-click Disk Management, point to All Tasks, and then tap or click Configure Shadow Copies.

4. On the Shadow Copies tab, select the volume with which you want to work in the Select A Volume list.

5. Tap or click Settings to configure the maximum size of all shadow copies for this volume and to change the default schedule. Tap or click OK.

6. After you configure the volume for shadow copying, tap or click Enable if necessary. When prompted to confirm this action, tap or click Yes. Enabling shadow copying creates the first shadow copy and sets the schedule for later shadow copies.

NOTE If you create a run schedule when configuring the Shadow Copy settings, shadow copying is enabled automatically for the volume when you tap or click OK to close the Settings dialog box. However, the first shadow copy won’t be created until the next scheduled run time. If you want to create a shadow copy of the volume now, select the volume and then tap or click Create Now.
