Shadow Copies for Shared Folders

Shadow copies are accessed over the network by supported clients and protocols. There are two sets of
supported protocols, SMB and NFS. All other protocols are not supported; this would include HTTP, FTP,
AppleTalk, and NetWare Shares. For SMB support, a client-side application denoted as Shadow Copies
for Shared Folders is required. The client-side application is currently only available for Windows XP
and Windows 2000 SP3+.
No additional software is required to enable UNIX users to independently retrieve previous versions
of files stored on NFS shares.
NOTE:
Shadow Copies for Shared Folders supports retrieval only of shadow copies of network shares. It does
not support retrieval of shadow copies of local folders.
