I have now tested a lot with the Windows shadow copy function in connection with Truenas 12U8.
Starting point:
However, it is still possible to open older shadow copies manually via Windows and manual copying data from previous versions is also no problem.
The 'Restore' function is only possible once.
Do I need anything more than the 'Enable Shadow Copies' in SMB service, that shadow copy works as desired?
Starting point:
- New folder created in dataset
- File 1 added
- snapshot 1
- File 2 added
- snapshot 2
- File 3 added
- snapshot 3
- File 4 added
- snapshot 4
