Why each option
SnapRestore supports single-file restores, and volume-level restores revert the volume to a prior snapshot state, permanently removing all snapshots created after that snapshot.
SnapRestore includes a single-file restore capability that lets administrators recover individual files directly from a snapshot without reverting the entire volume, reducing scope and disruption.
A volume-level SnapRestore reverts the volume to the exact state captured in the chosen snapshot, which causes ONTAP to purge all snapshots that were created more recently than the target snapshot in the process.
This statement is false - SnapRestore does support restoring individual LUNs using its single-file or LUN-level restore feature.
This statement is false - in current ONTAP releases, a volume SnapRestore revert can be performed while the volume is online without requiring it to be taken offline first.
