Revert From Snap Just folders not entire snap Isilon OneFS 8.0

Question

Hello All,

We have an interesting use case of accidental deletion of some files / folders. Instead of reverting the entire snap we would like to see if there is a way to just restore certain folders from the snap.

I have seen other posts on this but not recent or clear.

Please Advise and thanks in advance,

J.

Found some info on isi_file_revert but not exactly sure if it will fit our need.

Thank You So much Sam. This really helped. I was able to do a test restore folder. We currently have a cp job running on a huge snap in production. Do you have any idea how I can kill that running cp?

Thanks in advance,

John.
