For example, 3 p.m. should be entered as 15:00. When the frequency is set to Hours, you can only edit the minutes part of the At: field. STEP 5 In the Reserve Size field, enter the amount of space that you want to allocate to the snapshot. This space becomes unavailable for any other storage on the array.
