Exposing a snapshot

You can view a read-only copy of a snapshot of an Exchange storage group, SQL Server database,
or user-defined application by exposing the snapshot on your HP All-in-One Storage System. Exposing
a snapshot allows you to view the contents of a snapshot and selectively revert files.
NOTE:
A snapshot of a shared folder cannot be exposed using ASM. Use the Shadow Copy Client to view snapshots
of shared folders from a client computer. Snapshots of a shared folder are stored on the same logical disk
as the shared folder, in a protected system folder.
To expose a snapshot:
1. Navigate to the Manage Backups and Snapshots window.
2. Select an unexposed snapshot from the snapshot list.
3. Click Expose.
4.
Enter the expose path on the application server where you will view the snapshot.

Unexposing a snapshot

After restoring from a snapshot, you may choose to unexpose a snapshot.
To unexpose a snapshot:
1. Navigate to the Manage Backups and Snapshots window.
2. Select an exposed snapshot from the snapshot list.
3. Click Unexpose.
4. Click Yes to confirm.

Reverting data to snapshots

ASM allows you to revert data stored on your HP All-in-One Storage System to a snapshot. This
overwrites the existing data and reverts it to a past state.
NOTE:
Snapshots of shared folders cannot be reverted using ASM. To revert a shared folder to a past snapshot,
use the Shadow Copy Client.
NOTE:
Snapshots of local storage applications can not be reverted using ASM as all data that is on the same
volume as the application would also be reverted.
