Is performance tier space consumed when restoring a snapshot from cloud tier?
Applies to
- ONTAP 9
- Fabricpool
Answer
- As per the policies defined, once the data and snapshots are marked as cold, they are moved to the cloud tier.
- On restoring a volume snapshot, the data still remains cold and remains in the cloud tier.
- Since the data remains in the cloud tier, it doesn't consume performance tier space.
