Saved snapsets

A saved snapset is a snapset that is marked with a Saved attribute and is retained for the user-defined number of days (the retention period).

During snapset creation, zDP determines if a snapset should be marked as saved by comparing the current time to the time of the last saved snapset. If the user-defined number of days required between saved snapsets is reached, the snapset is marked as saved and its expiration time is set according to the retention period.

To create a saved snapset, use the SAVED_SNAPSETS parameter on the DEFINE VDG or MODIFY VDG OPTIONS command. Follow the guidelines for setting the snapset limit with saved snapsets.

Saved snapsets are indicated with ā€˜Sā€™ for the snapset type in the snapset name, for example:
