Shadow Copies for Shared Folders
Shadow copies are accessed over the network by supported clients and protocols. There are two
sets of supported protocols, SMB and NFS. All other protocols are not supported, including HTTP,
FTP, AppleTalk, and NetWare Shares. For SMB support, a client-side application denoted as
Shadow Copies for Shared Folders is required. The client-side application is available for Windows
XP, Windows 2000 SP3+, and later operating system versions.
No additional software is required to enable UNIX users to independently retrieve previous versions
of files stored on NFS shares.
NOTE:
Shadow Copies for Shared Folders supports retrieval only of shadow copies of network
shares. It does not support retrieval of shadow copies of local folders.
NOTE:
Shadow Copies for Shared Folders clients are not available for HTTP, FTP, AppleTalk,
or NetWare shares. Consequently, users of these protocols cannot use Shadow Copies for Shared
Folders to independently retrieve previous versions of their files. However, administrators can take
advantage of Shadow Copies for Shared Folders to restore files for these users.
