Taking an Unscheduled Snapshot

If you suspect that a system failure is imminent, or if you are about to perform an activity that could result in a system failure, you can take an unscheduled snapshot to capture the most recent data.

2.  On the VIRTUAL MACHINES page, click the primary VM for which you want to take a snapshot.
3. On the VM pane, click DR Snapshot.
4. At the prompt, click yes to take an unscheduled snapshot.
