In an environment using Cloud Backup Service, a user reports that an urgently needed file...

In a situation where an end user needs to find and restore a file whose last access or deletion time is unknown, the best feature to use within the Cloud Backup Service is Search & Restore. Here’s why:

Search Functionality:The Search & Restore feature allows users to quickly locate files within backup datasets using just the file name or other metadata. This is particularly useful when the exact details of the file, such as its last access date or deletion date, are unknown.

Efficient File Restoration:Once the file is located using the search functionality, it can be selectively restored to the desired location without the need to restore an entire volume, making the process efficient and tailored to the specific recovery need.

User-Friendly Interface:Cloud Backup Service typically provides a user-friendly interface for conducting searches and performing restores, making it accessible even to users who may not be deeply technical.

For detailed instructions on using the Search & Restore feature in NetApp Cloud Backup Service, refer to the service's user guide or online help available at: NetApp Cloud Backup Service Documentation.
