Rolling Back to a Snapshot (BUI)

Use the following procedure to roll back, or restore, a filesystem or LUN to an existing snapshot.

When a rollback occurs, any newer snapshots (and clones of newer snapshots) are destroyed, and the active data are reverted to the state when the snapshot was taken. Snapshots only include data, not properties, so any property settings changed since the snapshot was taken will remain. Changes to filesystem root directory access are lost during rollback.


Caution

Caution  -  This procedure cannot be undone.


  1. Go to the share or project that contains the snapshot you want to rename.
    • To restore a filesystem snapshot, go to Shares > Shares.
    • To restore a LUN snapshot, go to Shares > Shares and click LUNs.
  2. Hover over the share that contains the snapshot you want to restore and click the edit icon image:edit icon image .
  3. Click the Snapshots tab.
  4. Hover over the snapshot you want to restore, click its rollback icon image:rollback icon image , and confirm your action.
