Setting expiry for Snapshots

Each snapshot has an expiration date and time, you can preserve a snapshot to prevent it from expiring. Snapshot expires when the backup Saveset expires, even if the snapshot expiry date is greater than Saveset Expiry date. However, if this snapshot is already mounted, the snapshot goes in the pending state if the saveset has expired.

To set an expiry date of snapshot

In the navigation pane, click Create Restore Job.
2
On the Create Restore Job — Choose Saveset page, select the SaveSet Name and then click Explore Snapshots.
3
Select the snapshot from the Saveset Name list and click Set Expiry.

In the Explore Snapshot page, the Expires column updates the date and time.

Mounting Snapshots

You can mount any available snapshot, to access the data available in the snapshot. Snapshots must be mounted on a MediaAgent with the same operating system as the snapshot volumes. Currently, snapshots are mounted only on Windows machine. You can mount these snapshots on a particular drive or a specified empty folder. Once the snapshot is mounted you can view the details of each snapshot, which helps during the restore operation.
