•
Sat - Sun. This range of time denotes a typical weekend.

If the weekday start and end times are from 12:00 AM to 11:59 PM, then a single period exists. To
change the start or end time of a defined period, do the following:
a. Select the appropriate time period.
b. Click in the Start Time box to change the start time for this period.
c. Drag the Hours and Minutes slider controls as appropriate for the desired start time, and then
click Done. To specify the current time, click Now.
d. Click in the End Time box to change the end time for this period.
The Choose Time dialog box appears.
e. Drag the Hours and Minutes slider controls as appropriate for the desired start time, and then
click Done. To specify the current time, click Now.

change the interval from 60 minutes to 20 minutes to take snapshots three times hourly.

If you defined a period other than 12:00 AM to 11:59 PM in Step 6, then if you want backups to occur
in the remaining time ranges, you must add additional periods to define protection by doing the
following:
a. Click + Add period.
Under the appropriate category (weekdays or weekends), a new time period appears. If the first
period started later than 12:00 AM, then AppAssure automatically starts this period at 12:00.
Following the above example, this second period starts at 12:00 AM. You may need to adjust
hours or minutes for the start and end times.
b. Drag the Hours and Minutes slider controls as appropriate for the desired start and end times, as
appropriate.
c. Change the interval according to your requirements. For example, if defining an off-peak period.
change the interval from 60 minutes to 120 minutes to take snapshots every two hours.

If needed, continue to create additional periods, setting start and end times and intervals as
appropriate.
NOTE: If you want to remove a period you have added, click the X to the far right of that period.
If you remove a period in error, you can click Cancel.
