Create a Standard Snapshot

You can create a standard snapshot with CA Configuration Automation to use for system or service comparisons and control purposes. CA Configuration Automation provides Gold, Silver, and Bronze standard designations. A server or service can have one snapshot of each standard designation.

To create a standard snapshot

  1. In the Explore pane, select the server or service for which you want to create a snapshot.

    Note: The system that you select (or is part of the selected service) must have the CCA Agent and components installed.

  2. In the right-click menu click Verification, Snapshot.

    The Snapshot dialog, which displays snapshots for the selected system opens.

  3. Click the Actions button and select the Create Snapshot option.

    The Take Snapshot dialog opens.

  4. Type a snapshot name and select the snapshot type (Gold, Silver, or Bronze).

    A confirmation of the new standard snapshot appears.
