Mount and file restore

The IBM Spectrum Protect recovery agent enables the mounting of any snapshot volume from the IBM Spectrum Protect™ server. You can use the iSCSI protocol to access the snapshot from a remote computer for file restore operations.

Tip: Previous versions of Data Protection for Microsoft Hyper-V delivered the function for mounting and snapshot and restoring a file by using the recovery agent. Although this function is still supported by the recovery agent, the IBM Spectrum Protect file restore interface is the preferred method as described in Getting started with file restore operations.
