I was wondering if someone could help me understand volume sizing and snapshot sizing
I have a drive I want to snapshot.
The drive on the server is 1GB and I want to store 5 snapshots
There is a 1GB file on the drive and the file content changes 100% every day but never goes larger than 1GB
How large does the volume have to be?
Do I need to have 7GB volume in total
1GB for the data portion drive
+ 5GB (5x 1GB) for the 5 snapshots
+ 1GB for the snapshot process - i.e. the space required to take the snap before saving it?
or do I only need a 6GB volume
1GB for the data portion and 5GB for the 5 snapshots
Any help would be appreciated
