QuestionQ14

Backup and Restore

A storage administrator accidentally deleted a volume used for a 1 TB CIFS share. They confirmed that the operation occurred 8 hours ago. You must recover the data as quickly as possible.

Which step restores the volume in under one minute?

Explanation

ONTAP retains accidentally deleted volumes in its recovery queue for at least 12 hours by default. A volume deleted 8 hours earlier can therefore be recovered directly in ONTAP System Manager, which is substantially faster than restoring 1 TB of data from S3, NDMP backup, or a client recycle bin.
