Cloning a Volume from a Remote Snapshot

Important:

The time required to clone the volume depends on the amount of data stored on the volume and the connection speed between the two NAS devices.

Go to Storage & Snapshots > Storage > Storage/Snapshots.
Select a thick or thin volume.

Important:
The volume must have at least one snapshot.
Click Snapshot, and then select Snapshot Manager.

The Snapshot Manager window opens.
Under Select snapshot location, select a remote NAS.
Select a snapshot.
Click Clone.

The Clone Snapshot window opens.
Specify a volume alias.
Select a storage pool.
Select Enable encryption during transfer.

QTS encrypts the snapshot before sending it for additional security.
Click OK.

QTS clones the volume and shared folders, and then displays a confirmation message.
