- Backup fails and hangs when NMC user has insufficient privileges
- Snapshots fail to mount for AIX managed file systems
- Snapshots fail for Linux Volume Manager on VNX with PowerPath
- Linux Logical Volume Manager snapshots fail with an error
- NetWorker to Media-Clone stops responding and the backup fails
- File-by-file or saveset restore fails
- Restore of raw devices fails on Linux with permission issue
- Command nsrsnap_recover -I runs but fails to restore a file
- Restore fails with disk signature error
- Directed restore files and folder permission issue
- Snapshot mount might fail because VMAX does not release the lock on Restore FTS LUN

NetWorker 19.7 Snapshot Management Integration Guide
Snapshot operations with TimeFinder software
To perform snapshot operations on VMAX storage arrays, the TimeFinder Solutions Enabler package must be installed on both the application host and the mount host (if separate from the application host). Solutions Enabler manages all NetWorker TimeFinder client and server operations.
The TimeFinder software maintains multiple, host-independent copies of production data by generating synchronous real-time mirrors of the production data. TimeFinder can use locally mirrored LUNs on the same VMAX array or local LUNs with remotely mirrored LUNs on a separate VMAX array with an SRDF connection.
The NetWorker intelligent pairing feature automatically matches TimeFinder source LUNs with appropriate target mirror devices. This feature replaces a manually configured symm.res file on the application host. However, if a symm.res file is present, the file takes priority.
