MegaRAID Recovery
MegaRAID Recovery, also known as Snapshot, offers a simplified way to recover data and
provides automatic protection for the boot volume. You can use the Recovery feature to take a
snapshot of a volume and to restore a volume or a file. The Snapshot functionality allows you to
capture data changes to the volume and if the data is deleted accidentally or maliciously, you can
restore the data from the view or roll back to a snapshot at a previous point-in-time (PiT).
MegaRAID Recovery supports up to eight snapshots of PiTs for each volume.
Each Recovery PiT volume snapshot is typically a fraction of the original volume size, because it
tracks only the changes that are made to a volume after the PiT is created. Disk space for PiTs
is reserved in the Snapshot Repository virtual drive, and the PiT is expanded in small increments
as new data is written to the volume. Multiple PiTs of each volume can be retained online, enabling
frequent snapshots to be stored in a space-efficient manner.
