To start a File Search the following elements need to be set:
A VM to search in has to be chosen
A valid File Path provided

Once those have been set click "Search" to start the file search.
Warning:
Do not navigate to any other Horizon tab or website after starting the File Search. Results are lost and the search has to be repeated to regain them.
After a short time the results will be presented. The results are presented in a tabular format grouped by snapshots and volumes inside the snapshot.
For each found file or folder the following information are provided:
POSIX permissions
Amount of links pointing to the file or folder
User ID who owns the file or folder

Full path to the found file or folder
Once the snapshot of interest has been identified it is possible to go directly to the snapshot using the "View Snapshot" option at the top of the table. It is also possible to directly mount the snapshot using the "Mount Snapshot" Button at the end of the table.
