SmSQL rely on ONTAPI/ZAPI calls which is still works&nbsp; but is unclear when NetApp is going to drop it from ONTAP (all new calls/functions implemented only as REST&nbsp; &nbsp;since 9.8). IMHO SC is very pale shadow of previous generations of " integrated data protection" solutions from NetApp&nbsp;<BR /><BR /></P> Tue, 15 Mar 2022 18:33:02 GMT https://community.netapp.com/t5/SnapManager-to-SnapCenter-Transition/RECOVERY-mssql/m-p/433021#M28 VladZ 2022-03-15T18:33:02Z
