GitHub user pankajfromcomhard added a comment to the discussion: Best Way to 
Restore a Specific VM from Hourly Snapshots in Apache CloudStack 4.19.1.2

We are using NetApp SAN storage as the primary NFS storage in our Apache 
CloudStack 4.19.1.2 environment. Our SAN has the capability to take hourly 
snapshots of the NFS volume, ensuring data safety and quick recovery.

In case one of our VMs crashes or gets infected by a virus, we create a clone 
of the NFS repository in our NetApp SAN and mount it as a different NFS share 
within Apache CloudStack. This allows us to access the data as it was one hour 
earlier.

Currently, we can see both storage locations in Apache CloudStack and can 
browse the VM’s disk files (qcow2) from an hour ago. However, there is no 
direct option to move large files (100-500GB) between the two NFS mounts 
efficiently within CloudStack.

What would be the best way to restore a specific VM from this snapshot without 
manually copying large disk files? Are there any best practices or tools to 
streamline this process?
