Applying a snapshot on the target
Apply a snapshot to the target by using the snapshot revert command.
Deleting a snapshot
Because Storage Mirroring uses the Microsoft
®
Volume Shadow Copy service to create snapshots, the snapshots can be
managed through the Volume Shadow Copy command line administrator. You can also view, copy, or restore files from the
Previous Version tab by accessing the file properties through a share using Windows Explorer. See your Volume Shadow Copy
documentation for details. Additionally, you can use the Storage Mirroring commands to delete snapshots on the target.
