  2. Select Hourly, Daily, Weekly, or Monthly to specify the frequency for creating snapshots.

    Configured policies are marked with a green dot. Undefined policies are marked with a red dot.

  3. Select the number of snapshots you want to keep.

  4. Select the day, hour, and minute when the snapshot should be taken.
