checkpoint in celerra paused

Hello All,
This morning when i tried to check the checkpoint feature-I stumbled upon this...
Id Name                 State      Next Run                       Description
21 Daily_Patient    Paused Wed Nov 17 01:05:00 EST 2010  
11 UFS11_daily          Active     Tue Nov 16 23:02:00 EST 2010      12  UFS11_Weekly         Active     Sun Nov 21 05:32:00 EST 2010   
nas_ckpt_schedule -list
Id                     = 21
Name                   = Daily_Patient
Description            = Snap_Patient_daily
Tasks                  = Checkpoint Daily_Patient on filesystem id=143
Next Run               = Wed Nov 17 01:05:00 EST 2010
State                  = Paused
Recurrence             = every 1 weeks
Start On               = Fri Nov 20 14:04:12 EST 2009
End On                 =
At Which Times         = 01:05
On Which Days of Week  = Mon,Tue,Wed,Thu,Fri
Does this mean the checkpoint feature is disabled for the share because  of SavVol full or something? i am unable to understand this..
Do i get an option in CLI to check for the SavVol used? As far as i  know, this shouldn't be happening since we use AVM feature and have HWM  set up ,SavVol is auto expandable in this case>>  Any help will be  appreciated!

not the checkpoint is paused, but the checkpoint schedule.

The checkpoint feature is still working, but the schedule will not refresh or update checkpoints.

if you want to run the schedule again, issue a

nas_ckpt_schedule -resume id=21

If it is not changed on again, there will be no newer checkpoints of the FS

Hi,

In order to monitor the SavVol usage, please see https://community.emc.com/docs/DOC-7340.

Regarding the scheduler status "paused", it was probably manually paused.

New checkpoints will not be created until you activate it. If you want to activate it, run :

# nas_ckpt_schedule -resume Daily_Patient

If you want more information, please post the output of :

# fs_ckpt id=143 -l

Thanks for your response GUSTAVO..

Here's the out put:

[nasadmin@memsrv ~]$ fs_ckpt id=143 -l
id    ckpt_name                creation_time                      inuse fullmark   total_savvol_used  ckpt_usage_on_savvol
210   Daily_Patient            01/11/2010-02:05:05-EST        y   90%        1%                 0%
216   test                          01/13/2010-15:22:00-EST        y   90%        1%                 1%
Info 26306752329: The value of ckpt_usage_on_savvol for read-only checkpoints may not be consistent with the total_savvol_used.  id    wckpt_name               inuse fullmark total_savvol_used  base  ckpt_usage_on_savvol

this is the output i got.should i be seeing total_savvol_used or ckpt_usage_on_savvol? Utilization doesn't seem much.

Can i find when this was turned to pause ? What will be the consequence if not turned back on? Please suggest..
