Figure 95 Enable MegaRAID Recovery Wizard The Snapshot Repository field displays the details of the default virtual drives existing in the system, if there are any. - The Name column displays the name of the virtual drive. - The Status column displays the status of the virtual drive. - The Available Capacity column displays the available capacity on the virtual drive. - The Total Capacity displays the total capacity of the virtual drive. If the default virtual drives do not exist in the system, the Snapshot Repository field columns are blank. The status of the virtual drive can be optimal, degraded, or partially degraded. 2. In the Select Capacity field, use the drop-down selector to select the appropriate capacity to use for changes to the base virtual drive. The capacity is dependent on how write-intensive the application is that you are taking snapshots of. The available capacity is the largest free block of capacity on the snapshot repository virtual drive. Note: Please refer to the tips provided for allocating capacity in the following figure. If you designate all of the capacity for the virtual drive repository, you cannot use the same virtual drive as a repository for other volumes.

The
Snapshot Repository
field displays the details of the default virtual drives existing in the
system, if there are any.
The
Name
column displays the name of the virtual drive.
The
Status
column displays the status of the virtual drive.
The
Available Capacity
column displays the available capacity on the virtual drive.
The
Total Capacity
displays the total capacity of the virtual drive.
If the default virtual drives do not exist in the system, the

field columns
are blank.
The status of the virtual drive can be optimal, degraded, or partially degraded.
2.
In the
Select Capacity
field, use the drop-down selector to select the appropriate capacity to
use for changes to the base virtual drive.
The capacity is dependent on how write-intensive the application is that you are taking
snapshots of. The available capacity is the largest free block of capacity on the snapshot
repository virtual drive.
Note:
Please refer to the tips provided for allocating capacity in the following figure.
If you designate all of the capacity for the virtual drive repository, you cannot use the
same virtual drive as a repository for other volumes.
