Where is the SnapVault restore command executed to pull data from the secondary to the primary?

• A. Secondary system
• B. Primary system
• C. OSSV client
• D. Primary storage system

Answer: (B)

The restore is initiated on the primary system. In a SnapVault setup, the primary holds the data you want to restore and the secondary stores backups of that data. When you need to pull data back from the backup copy, you issue the restore command on the primary, which then retrieves the appropriate snapshot from the secondary and reconstitutes the primary’s data. The secondary simply provides the data; the command origin is the primary, not the secondary or a separate client.
