The SAN File System console enables you to create and delete files to assist in disaster recovery. In addition, there are several disaster recovery tasks that can be performed from the Administrative command-line interface.
Several of the restoring tasks depend on having first executed certain backup tasks. The method of restoration will depend a great deal upon whether you chose the LUN or API method of backup.
