What is Pool Guaranteed Snapshot Space?
Applicable Products:
- Snapshot
- Storage & Snapshots
When using Snapshots to preserve changes to data, the snapshots will be stored directly in the storage pool. Snapshots are automatically removed when the system needs to free up storage pool space for other purposes, such as thin provisioning. Enabling pool guaranteed snapshot space ensures that a certain number of snapshots will be retained, by reserving a specified amount of the storage pool for snapshots.
