To restore a SnapVault-protected qtree from the secondary storage system to the primary storage system, which method allows overwriting the existing qtree on the primary storage system with DOT 7.3?

• A. restore to a non existingqtree with DOT 7. 2
• B. add the new qtree to the primary storage system with DOT 7.2
• C. overwrite the existing qtree on the primary storage system with DOT 7.3
• D. delete the existing qtree from the secondary storage system with DOT 7.3

Answer: (C)

When restoring a SnapVault-protected qtree to the primary, you want the primary to become an exact copy of the secondary. In DOT 7.3, the restore process supports overwriting an existing qtree on the primary, replacing its current data with the backed-up data from the secondary. This makes the primary match the secondary exactly.

Restoring to a non-existing qtree would create a new one instead of replacing the current primary qtree. Adding a new qtree to the primary with DOT 7.2 would also leave the existing primary qtree intact. Deleting the existing qtree on the secondary affects only the backup, not the primary restore operation. Therefore, overwriting the existing qtree on the primary with DOT 7.3 is the correct method.
