N Series Snapshot: A Technical Discussion

Category: Storage, Data Management

Tags: data

Overview This paper discusses the N series Snapshot feature. Snapshot is a standard feature of the Data ONTAP operating system. It enables online backups to be maintained, thus providing near-instantaneous access to previous versions of data without requiring complete, separate copies or resorting to offline backups. Snapshots can be scheduled by an administrator, and you can keep up to 255 Snapshots online at any one time. The paper provides UNIX and Windows examples of creating Snapshots. Snapshot technology makes extremely efficient use of storage by storing only block-level changes between each successive Snapshot.
