Restrictions: FMA does not support “file activation” for files, which have been
restored to a new location. Restoring files is only supported to their
original location.
Remark: VSS can be used on a server, with volumes managed by FMA.
Note:
Volume snapshots can be taken on FMA managed volumes; there
is no negative interference between VSS and FMA. Taking volume
shadow copies does not initiate recalls of already released files.
When using VSS and FMA, the following restrictions exist:
• FMA supports VSS when used by a qualified backup application. It
does not support the use of VSS-Client.
• FMA does not support file activation for files that have been
restored to a new location. Restoring files is only supported to their
original location.
• Restoring previous versions from VSS to original
location: No restrictions exist to the restore of online files.
• Viewing previous snapshot from VSS: Viewing a previous
snapshot of files that were offline during the volume
snapshot is not supported.
• Copying previous versions from VSS to a different
location is not supported by FMA.
Since shadow copies are read only, it is not possible for FMA to recall a
file using a stub file in a shadow copy. HP recommends giving careful
consider this limitation when deploying both VSS and FMA.
