To change the volume status:
•
Start a Telnet session, and log on to the filer. At the prompt, type:
vol restrict <target volume>
You can also change the volume status from the NetApp web interface. For more information, see the relevant NetApp documentation.

Description
NDMP Server
This option specifies the target filer name. It is only required when you want to restore data to an alternate filer. By default, it is set to the name of the original filer from which the data was backed up. Do not change the NDMP Server while restoring data to the same filer.
Break Mirror on Exit
When a snapshot is restored to a volume, a SnapMirror Relationship is established for the volume and the volume is marked as read only. After the restore job is completed successfully, you must break the relationship and mark the volume as writable.

Restoring Incremental Backups

To restore data from an Incremental Backup sequence

You must restore the Incremental Backups in the order in which they were created.

A volume must be in a SnapMirror Relationship to restore the Incremental Backups. If you break the SnapMirror Relationship before restoring all Incremental Backups, restore the Full Backup again, and then restore the applicable Incremental Backups.
