Eol for SMBR, how to script it?

Hey,

 

SMBR is now EoL. The nice function of mounting Snapshots by by selecting the DB and time is now gone.

SnapCenter is no longer supporting the mount of a Snapshot as drive letter (why?).

 

So I need to script that steps of mounting the Snapshot based on the database and time now to help the team during recovery. 

 

I'm stuck with Powershell and SC API at the point where the Snapshots from Secondary need to be mounted.

SC authenticates to the SVM but tries to run a "cluster identity show" that does no exist at this level.

 

I also tried it by RestAPI, but stuck where I query the ressources.

The RestAPI shows that there is a DAG with members, but I dont get any ressources belonging to it.

 

Has somebody else here the intention to work fix this as well?
