Re: restore requires cartridge to mount R/W

Doing a DR recovery directly from a replication context target mtree or directory isn't recommended anyway. Look into the Data Domain filesys fastcopy command to duplicate your replicated data to static read/write copy for temporary DR testing. There are some whitepapers that discuss this

FILE Device class over NFS
