Re: Recovering file from snapmirror snapshot

I presume you mean the snapmirror destination.  You can force the volume online, but will then encounter issues with resuming SM.  It becomes more difficult if you are running an SVM-DR. 

The way I do it,is:

I have a Recovery SVM on the Backup array setup for access by admins with a CIFS and NFS server setup.

I then clone the snapmirrored volume using a snapshot I am interested in recovering from,  to the Recovery SVM.  Export or share as usual, copy back your data, and then;

Delete the clone, or else it will cause you snapshot rotation to fail on the destination.

 There was a third party software tool that allowed you to recovery via a File Explorer type interface, but has not progressed to FlexGroups which we are very heavily invested in.  It is also an extra cost item.

 

Hope this helps
