Creating Schedules

Start with a conservative schedule, validate scan behavior, and then expand confidently.

Creating Schedules

Schedules let SnapFS run scans on a regular cadence.

Start Small

For beta, the safest approach is:

  • create a schedule for a small root or subpath first
  • confirm scan behavior
  • then expand to a larger scope if the results look correct

Typical Choices

Useful starting points:

  • hourly for a small active folder
  • daily for a larger or quieter root
  • manual runs for initial validation

Existing Schedules

Use the Schedules page to review and manage recurring scans.

Schedules

What To Enter

When creating a schedule, choose:

  • a clear schedule name
  • the target path to scan
  • the run cadence
  • whether the schedule is enabled

Create A Schedule

The create flow should be straightforward: choose a name, target path, cadence, and whether the schedule starts enabled.

Good Beta Practice

If this is a very large environment, do not start with the full namespace. Validate one or two smaller roots first.
