Hi!

 

For Nutanix CIFS backups we have support for CFT (Changed Files Tracking).

https://documentation.commvault.com/commvault/v11_sp20/article?p=110109.htm

 

Now I know that Commvault used to have more extensive integration with NetApp than with any other storage system. But am I correct that this feature currentlyis not available for NetApp filers?

 

Thanks!

Ah, I think SnapDiff is the magic word…

I assumed it was only applicable to IntelliSnap backups… :-)
