Since the checkpoint has not yet been taken - the state is shown as pending. You have just created the scheduler and thus the time has not come yet to take the checkpoint. Once the scheduler starts taking checkpoints the status will change. Please note that, the scheduler will refresh (delete old ones and take new one for a particular time) checkpoints as per your schedule configuration.

Please refer to the Using SnapSure on Celerra available on Powerlink.

Another point, please do not schedule any checkpoint at the begining of every hour - say from 0th minute to at least 5 mins (to be safer leave 10-15 mins) after every hour - as the system performs Hourly NAS Database backup at the begining of every hour and that may take few mins to complete - during which any checkpoint creation may fail stating "resource not available".

Thanks,

The manual for checkpoints is actually called Using SnapSure on EMC Celerra

I would recommend to download the complete documentation CD so that you dont have to hunt for individual manuals
It also has an Index and a Search function
