Hi Team,
Currently we don't have a capability to add _recent in SnapCenter Plug-in for VMware vSphere. There is no workaround either to my knowledge.
We do have a cmdlet to get the latest snapshot in SnapCenter (see below) but unfortunately SCV plug-in doesn't supports cmdlets
>> Get-SmBackup -AppObjectName 'NetApp'
BackupId BackupName BackupTime BackupType
-------- ---------- ---------- ----------
2 vise-f7_NetApp_vise-f7_02-... 2/8/2018 2:42:08 PM Full Backup
15 vise-f7_NetApp_vise-f7_02-... 2/13/2018 2:41:10 PM Full Backup
23 vise-f7_NetApp_vise-f7_02-... 2/28/2018 5:54:04 PM Full Backup
>> Get-SmBackup -AppObjectName 'NetApp' | select -Last 1
BackupId BackupName BackupTime BackupType
-------- ---------- ---------- ----------
23 vise-f7_NetApp_vise-f7_02-... 2/28/2018 5:54:04 PM Full Backup
SCV plug-in version 4.1 is coming with REST API support in Aug'18, using which you can get hold of the latest snapshot.
_recent tag will be introduced in SCV 4.1 currently planned for Jan'19. We haven't passed Phase 2 so the feature is not yet committed by engineering.
