Reverting data to snapshots

ASM allows you to revert data stored on your HP 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.
Snapshots of user-defined applications that are configured as local storage only applications
cannot be reverted using ASM because all data that is on the same volume as the application
would also be reverted.

Scheduling backups

From the Backup property tab, you can schedule and configure backups.
NOTE:
On ASM replication target systems, you must have snapshots scheduled in order to also schedule
backups. These scheduled backups use the latest available snapshot at the time the backup runs. You
should account for replication latency when scheduling the snapshot on the source HP Storage System
and the backup on the target HP Storage System.
