create_snap
Syntax
ConfigureObjectStore -o create_snap -n <Object Store Name> -T "MM-DD-YYYY HH:MM:SS" [-c Allowed clients] [-N Snap Name] [-C Copy Precedence] [-m MediaAgent Client Name] [-h]
Description
The create_snap option creates a view of the specified NFS ObjectStore share that reflects the data present before the specified time.
Users can mount this point-in-time view in addition to the NFS ObjectStore that it was created from. For example, if the original NFS share is /userTest, then the point-in-time version is /userTest-4313228400, and users can mount both shares.
By default, all NFS clients that have access to the share, also have access to the point-in-time share, but you can limit which clients have access by using the -c option.
The table lists the options that the software supports.
