The Smart Snapshot Management feature does not prune manual snapshots.
Note
Rolling Back
You can replace a shared folder or LUN with an earlier version by rolling back to a snapshot. When you roll back to
a snapshot, the entire shared folder or LUN is replaced with the version captured by the snapshot. All snapshots
that were taken after the snapshot that was used for rolling back are deleted. For information about how to roll back
to a snapshot, see 
 on page 124.
Clones
You can copy a snapshot to become a new independent shared folder or LUN. Changes made to the clone do not
affect the parent shared folder or LUN and changes made to the parent do not affect the clone. For information about
how to clone snapshots, see
