NetApp - Is it possible to set a single snapshot to never expire
Good morning all
Is it possible to set a single snapshot to be excluded from the standard retention policy?
We'd like to keep that point in time until a project is over and then either take the exclusion off to delete manually at our leisure. This snapshot was taken a while ago as part of the schedule and is due to be pruned in a couple of weeks so we're hoping to find an answer ASAP...
I'm guessing that creating a snapclone of the volume will keep the data in place but I was hoping for something a little cleaner.
Thanks for you help :)
