Determining creation frequency

The more frequently shadow copies are created, the more likely that end users will get the version that they want. However, with a maximum of 64 shadow copies per volume, there is a trade-off between the frequency of making shadow copies and the amount of time that the earlier files will be available.

By default, the StoreEasy 1000 Storage system creates shadow copies at 0700 and 1200, Monday through Friday. However, these settings are easily modified by the administrator so that the shadow copy schedule can better accommodate end user needs.
