Can I restore from storage snapshots ?

[lrhazi]

Hello,
I am trying to find storage snapshot restore points, but the API does seem to include those?

This end point seems to only return veeam backup restore points: /api/v1/objectRestorePoints

Is there way to access storage snapshaots and use them to start restore operations?

Thanks,
Mohamed.

Hello,
I do not think such functionality is exposed in the API, but I could be wrong. I have fond the next topic, but it is using PowerShell; perhaps it can help.

Would you mind letting us know a bit more what Storage system you have and how you are expecting to leverage this functionality?

Thank you!

Hi Jorge.

We use Veeam to restore VMs from our Netapp storage snapshots a lot... it's much faster and we have lots of restore points available... as the netapp creates snapshots hourly.

Funny how the forum thread you referred me to, was me asking the same question some 5 years ago
