Manage and monitor snapshot policies

After you create an HDFS, HBase, or Ozone snapshot policy, you can manage the snapshot policies on the “Snapshot Policies” page. You can view more details about the snapshot policy on the "Snapshot History" page.

The Snapshot Policies page in Cloudera Private Cloud Base Replication Manager shows the list of snapshot policies, filters to view the snapshot policies, and the Create Snapshot Policy option to create HDFS, HBase, and Ozone snapshot policies.

Snapshot policy details

The following snapshot policy details appear on the Cloudera Manager > Replication > Snapshot Policies page:

Option Description
Policy Name Shows the snapshot policy you provided during snapshot policy creation.
Cluster Shows the cluster where the snapshots reside.
Service Shows the service as HDFS, HBase, or Ozone for the snapshot policy.
Directories/Tables/Objects Shows the directories, tables, or buckets and volumes you chose for the snapshot policy.

You can use the CLUSTER, SERVICE, and SCHEDULE filters to view the required snapshot policies on the Snapshot Policies page.
