Is there a way to mount a shapshot in the NappIt UI? TIA
If you need read access, you can
- Access locally ex via midnight commander or Nautilus (OI) in folder filesystem/.zfs/snapshot

- Other option: Windows
I mostly use Windows and "previous versions" to access snaps

If you need writable snaps, you must clone a snapshot.
This is not integrated in napp-it, you must do via CLI

Gea, with windows previous versions, does that access zfs snapshots or just windows shadow copy?

Windows previous versions on a Solarish SMB share (Solaris CIFS server) = ZFS snapshots

Good to know, thanks.
