Revert a snapshot

You can revert a directory back to the state it was in when a snapshot was taken.

  • Create a SnapRevert domain for the directory.
  • Create a snapshot of a directory.
  1. Optional: To identify the ID of the snapshot you want to revert, run the isi snapshot snapshots view command.
    The following command displays the ID of HourlyBackup_07-15-2014_23:00:
    isi snapshot snapshots view HourlyBackup_07-15-2014_23:00
    The system displays output similar to the following example:
            ID: 18
            Name: HourlyBackup_07-15-2014_23:00
            Path: /ifs/data/media
       Has Locks: No
        Schedule: hourly
           Alias: -
         Created: 2014-07-15T23:00:05
         Expires: 2014-08-14T23:00:00
            Size: 0b
    Shadow Bytes: 0b
       % Reserve: 0.00%
    % Filesystem: 0.00%
           State: active
  2. Revert a snapshot by running the isi job jobs start command.
    The following command reverts HourlyBackup_07-15-2014_23:00:
    isi job jobs start snaprevert --snapid 18
