Backup SMB share with SnapCenter?

We are trying out FSx ONTAP and SnapCenter.  We have an iSCSI share for SQL server and an SMB share configured.  I was able to get SQL database backups working with SnapCenter but do not see a way to backup the SMB share. SnapCenter can see the Filesystem (AWS lingo)  but I don't see any way to add it to Hosts or push an agent to make backups work.

Hello,

snapCenter is made to backup the Applications, for Files, you can do SVM-DR ou Snapmirror / Vault

SVM-DR can "backup" your share configuration adn files permisions

Thanks, I was hoping there was a more intelligent restore method like there is for SQL databases where you don't have to restore and configure an entire snapshot for one file.
