Restore the contents of a volume from a Snapshot copy
Suggest changes
You can recover a volume to an earlier point in time by restoring from a Snapshot copy. You can use System Manager or the volume snapshot restore
command to restore the contents of a volume from a Snapshot copy.
About this task
If the volume has SnapMirror relationships, manually replicate all mirror copies of the volume immediately after you restore from a Snapshot copy. Not doing so can result in unusable mirror copies that must be deleted and recreated.
Steps
You can use System Manager or the ONTAP CLI to restore from an earlier Snapshot copy.
System Manager
-
Click Storage and select a volume.
-
Under Snapshot Copies, click next to the Snapshot copy you want to restore, and select Restore.
