Multiple daily snapshot
Hi guys,
is there a way to schedule multiple daily snapshots for a Volume?
I'm using CS 4.5.2 with XS 6.2 SP1 and after creating first daily schedule,
it goes in gray and I can only schedule hourly, weekly and monthly.
I just want to schedule 2 snapshots: one at 1 PM and another at 6 PM.
Thank you.

Tested and it works fine for me the snapshot via cloudmonkey (cloudmonkey
create snapshot volumeid=<id>).
You can use bash for schedule a script with the cloudmonkey commands you
need.

So it could be possible to run a cloudmonkey script on a schedule?
I'll try....

Hi Alessandro,
Unfortunately, CloudStack does not provide this functionality.
At least not out of the box, it would require some extra work.
I will have to check it later, but some script with cloudmonkey[1] might do
the trick (I never tried to use it to take snapshots of a VM, so I am not
sure if cloudmonkey can help you).
