Accessing to NFS file system .snapshot

.snapshot – Makes the snapshot available for self-service restores.
On Unix/Linux systems, users can access snapshot data by going to the .snapshot directory.

Here are examples of the step to create and access .snapshot

Select "Storage-->File Systems-->NFS file system-->Protection-->Create Snapshot" then select File Snapshot Access Type "Snapshot (Read-Only)"
