SMB shadow copies
Windows users can independently access previous versions of files stored on SMB shares by using
the Shadow Copies for Shared Folders client. After the Shadow Copies for Shared Folders client is
installed on the user's computer, the user can access shadow copies for a share by right-clicking on
the share to open its Properties window, clicking the Previous Versions tab, and then selecting the
desired shadow copy. Users can view, copy, and restore all available shadow copies.
Shadow Copies for Shared Folders preserves the permissions set in the access control list (ACL) of
the original folders and files. Consequently, users can only access shadow copies for shares to which
they have access. In other words, if a user does not have access to a share, he also does not have
access to the share's shadow copies.
The Shadow Copies for Shared Folders client pack installs a Previous Versions tab in the Properties
window of files and folders on network shares.
Users access shadow copies with Windows Explorer by selecting View, Copy, or Restore from the
Previous Versions tab. (See Figure 32). Both individual files and folders can be restored.

.
When users view a network folder hosted on the storage system for which shadow copies are enabled,
old versions (prior to the snapshot) of a file or directory are available. Viewing the properties of the
file or folder presents users with the folder or file historya list of read-only, point-in-time copies of
the file or folder contents that users can then open and explore like any other file or folder. Users can
view files in the folder history, copy files from the folder history, and so on.
