About NAS_Snapshot
NetBackup can make point-in-time snapshots of data on NAS (NDMP) hosts using the NDMP V4 snapshot extension. The snapshot is stored on the same device that contains the NAS client data. From the snapshot, you can restore individual files or roll back a file system or volume by means of the Instant Recovery feature.
Note:
NetBackup for NDMP software is required on the server, and the NAS vendor must support the NDMP V4 snapshot extension.
You can control snapshot deletion by means of the parameter. This parameter is specified on the Snapshot Options dialog of the policy.
For detailed information about NAS snapshots, setting up a policy for NAS snapshots and format of NAS snapshot name, check the 'Network Attached Storage (NAS) snapshot configuration' chapter of this guide.
