The Metadata Manager provides a step-by-step procedure to assist you with creating a new snapshot, or overwriting an existing snapshot. In this procedure, you can describe the snapshot and specify its location, specify a full snapshot to include all metadata, or a custom snapshot to select specific metadata types, as well as any related metadata such as attributes, parents and children, and mapping.
NOTE: You must have administrator privileges to create and manage snapshots.
To create a new snapshot, or overwrite an existing snapshot:
1.    From any Metadata Manager window, click Snapshot and select Create/Overwrite.
     You see the Create Snapshot – Welcome dialog box.
2.    Click Next.
     You see the Create Snapshot – Step 1: Name and Access dialog box.

5.    Select Full Snapshot or Custom Snapshot:
–  If you selected Full Snapshot, you see the Create Snapshot – Finish dialog box that summarizes the snapshot options you have selected. Click Finish to create the snapshot.
–  If you selected Custom Snapshot, you see the Create Snapshot – Step 3: Create Metadata Types dialog box. To add a type, click a type in the Available Types and click Add. To remove a type from the Selected Types, click a type and click Remove.
6.    If needed, click the Version drop down and select a compatible file version to load the snapshot file into older versions of the Metadata Center.
7.    Click Next.
     You see the Create Snapshot – Step 4: Select Related Metadata dialog box.
