Snapshots

Understanding and managing configuration snapshots

The Snapshots page displays all configuration snapshots across your registered machines. This page allows you to monitor snapshot status, view details, and retry failed snapshots.

Snapshot List View

The snapshots table displays the following information for each snapshot:

  • Configuration: The name of the configuration that was backed up

  • Machine: The machine where the snapshot was taken

    • P badge indicates a Primary machine

    • C badge indicates a Clone machine

  • Status: Current state of the snapshot

    • Done: Snapshot completed successfully

    • Cancelled: Snapshot was manually cancelled by a user

    • Failed: Snapshot encountered an error (retry available)

  • Unarchived Size: The size of the snapshot data before compression

    • Note: Snapshots are archived (compressed) during transit. This value is a sanity check for the actual data size

  • Duration: How long the snapshot took to complete

  • Created By: The user who initiated the snapshot

  • Create: The date and time when the snapshot was created
