Hi Team,
We having AFF8020 , version 9.7P22 (the support contract is done for this system)
We've noticed already 3-4 times, that files disappeared (now we'll notice if it's happening every night, or once in few nights).
The 1st time it happened, we've first created a clone from week ago snapshot to keep it in the side if the 'restore' won't work, and then we restored the original volume to few days ago, and the files got back.
From the UI, I can't see something strange.
But, now there is a strange thing, that I see that few new folders created/edited on the time 00:00. we didn't created it. it looks like some k8s/contect libraries directories maybe. don't know
So I suspect it's one of 2 things :
1. something related to snapshot etc.
2. maybe there is some system that this volume is mounted to it, and it's doing some changed in 00:00. but I can't see it from the UI logs
I do saw some similar topic here :https://community.netapp.com/t5/Ask-The-Experts/Files-disappear-from-NetApp-2220-every-day-at-00-00/td-p/153164
So I'm already showing here the command that the supporter asked there.
