SnapDrive for Windows supports Protection Manager datasets through the SnapManager products.
Protection Manager makes it easy to manage very large SnapMirror and SnapVault deployments by grouping data and storage systems into datasets and resource pools, enabling automation of many routine data protection tasks. You can configure SnapDrive with a set of DataFabric Manager (DFM) credentials so that it can authenticate to a DFM server. This allows a SnapManager to use SnapDrive as a conduit to support Protection Manager retention policies and schedules.
To take advantage of these Protection Manager features through SnapDrive for Windows, you must have a DFM server with version 3.7 or later, and your storage systems must be running Data ONTAP 7.3 or later.
For more information, refer to your SnapManager documentation.
