How to schedule Snapshot script for daily tasks

Question

Dear Team, We have around 110 windows 2003/2008 Servers configured with SAN boot in CX4_480 Storage. Currently I am using clone option  which is consuming  space equivalent to OS Luns. If incase , OS Lun is corrupted , the same has been replicated to Clone Lun as well  and it leads to loss of productivity. Can you First Let us know the recommended method for OS Lun   ->Clone  or Snapshot If snapshot is fine I need help to configure snapshot script for below requirement, so that I am able to get last known good point in time Lun copy. 1)     1)  Snapshot of C drive for all  servers has to get created  every day 6 PM using script 2)   2)    Snapshots which are older than 2 Days has to be automatically  get deleted using script  without effecting production server
