Embarrassingly complicated..... snapshot tasks every 12 hours?

[diskdiddler]

How on earth do I specify a snapshot task every 12 hours?

I'm having immense difficulty in organising this. I've tried the daily and hourly presets, obviously one is 24 hour, one is every hour.
I then type figures in to the boxes - so I can specify perhaps exactly 5pm but I can't seem to get the preview to show every 12 hours.

I tried /12 (I think that's the right function) that too didn't work.
I don't have the ability to do custom schedule (I can't manually key in as if I was manually editing a cron job)

Is it even possible from the UI? It's probably something very simple I'm missing.

Just configure it to take a snapshot every 12 hours.

Ahem, sorry about that.

Under "Custom" configure it like so...

For Minutes: 0

For Hours: */12

For Days: *

Do not check any boxes for any months or any days of the week.
