Nutanix Files plug-in considerations and limitations
The following considerations and limitations are applicable:
Snapshot operations are not supported for nested shares on Nutanix Files File Server.
A nested share is a share that is itself a sub-directory in an existing file share. NetBackup does not support snapshot creation for such nested shares.
Nutanix Files File Server does not support point-in-time (PIT) rollback restore of shares using snapshots. You can use NetBackup assisted restore of shares' data.
The maximum snapshot limit for a Nutanix Files shares is 20.
The maximum snapshot limit defines the maximum number of policy-triggered snapshots that are retained for the specified share. When the maximum count is reached, the next snapshot that is created by the policy results in the deletion of the oldest snapshot.
You may want to consider the policy schedule and retention for NetBackup's policy protecting Nutanix File shares.
