Unmanaged snap are generated when:
Delete a volume
collection
( a bug that will
be fixed soon)
Delete a schedule
Deletion of
Replica Volcoll
Stopping
Replication on
Volcoll
Warning Message
Explanation:
In case the volume will be taken out
from the volume collection without
re-allocating it to another collection,
a pop up window will display a
warning message including the
number of snapshot involved.
If you delete this schedule your volume LUX 1 will be unprotected, the only
back up you have are these 3 objects:
Pin them
Delete them
Proposal:
Since its wont be uncommon for a
list of snaps to be in the 10s easily
We added a simple count. One
opportunity on top of that is to
somehow allow users to choose to
keep some of the snaps (accessing
the list ?) (e.g. At least the latest
one) Eventually the user could
decide to Delete the objects , Pin
them or cancel the pop up.
Further considerations:
Facilitating the access to snapshots and create
a snapshot-centered facet/filter navigation tool
In the current dashboard snapshots are accessed from the volume
page. We proposed to access the snapshots directly from the
manage tab in the array dashboard include a list of snapshots for
the all array (Solution A). The benefit is to access all the snapshots at
once for all the volumes. The disadvantage will be to eventually
return a long list. We solve this potential disadvantage introducing a
snapshot filter through facets (Solution B).

Explanation:
Users can access the list of
snapshots under the
protection item included in
the Manage drop down list.

Facet filter for the snapshot selection. After the meeting we introduced the term of Active
snapshot, that means that is part of a running schedule, and the PIN snapshots that is generated
by editing or deleting schedules. ( and potentially used for other cases, such deleting volumes
as an archived backup) , or when a user takes a volume out from a collection for re-allocation
One other proposed option would be to quickly swap from a filter that filters snapshots from
snapshots characteristics and one by volumes

Advanced search :
Selecting the advanced tab on the top right side
of the search bar the user will be prompt to all the
potential facets to filter their searches
The Facets Are: By Type, By Time and By object
Facet By Object :Results are live entered in a
specific By object search bar included in the by
object section. The results will be contextually
highlighted and displayed in a form of list .
Innovation Proposal: (This solution is only a
proposal that require further analysis):
In case the results have a sub-domain ( Ex.
Searching a particular snap related to a volume
into a particular pool ) the user could have the
opportunity to refine the search expanding the
higher in rank object list results. In this proposal
the filter by object facet works like an elastic list
that can be expanded and reduced according to
the use.
