Hi,

 

How can I mount FileStore snapshot ?

Do user can browse/navigate into snapshot ? What should they do ?

 

Many thanks

Create a share using a snapshot

You simply just create a new share which points to the snapshot. You can even make it r/w. SFS uses checkpoints in VxFS, so each "snapshot" is potentially a complete standalone file system.
