A snapshot delivers a complete backup of GAiA. How do you restore a local snapshot named
MySnapshot.tgz?

A.
Reboot the system and call the start menu. Select option Snapshot Management, provide the
Expert password and select [L] for a restore from a local file. Then, provide the correct file name.
B.
As Expert user, type command snapshot – R to restore from a local file. Then, provide the
correct file name.
C.
As Expert user, type command revert –file MySnapshot.tgz.
D.
As Expert user, type command snapshot -r MySnapshot.tgz.
A, there is no snapshot command in CLI nor Expert mode in Gaia.

The answer is C.
Reboot the system and call the start menu sounds like a windows thing, never heard of a start menu in Gaia.
snapshot -r is not reverting anything.

GAIA GUI or set snapshot revert VALUE
But what is the answer?!

Not sure about SPLAT but GAIA has startup menu and option Snapshot Management is not on main screen but there is option called “Revert to Snapshot”
For CLI reference http://bit.ly/1m0rnt8
but for expert mode there’s nothing. It’s almost at the end of that doc and for CLISH they have “set snapshot revert VALUE”.
In Expert mode I have tried snapshot and revert and both commands end with “This command is not active” so I would go for A.
Tested on GAIA R77.30

The opposite action for snapshot is revert. It can be used to import a snapshot file into the server. that being said for GAIA, i am not a 100% sure but the most logical answer is A

There is no command “revert” in Gaia. “revert” only available for SPLAT. There is now correct answer here. It should be
>set snapshot import MySnapshot path
>set snapshot revert MySnapshot
“A” also not right, there is no option to revert to non-inported snapshot from boot menu

Well since question is not how to import snapshot but how do you restore system from local snapshot the only answer available would be A.
Commands provided by Andrew are correct
>set snapshot import MySnapshot path
>set snapshot revert MySnapshot
both commands revert and snapshot in expert mode in GAIA are not active that leaves only option A

None of the answers are correct.
One of two things happened:
1. This question came from an old exam with SPLAT instead of Gaia, with SPLAT the answer should be “C”. With Gaia there is no revert command.

2. The answer A was written with a mistake, as the option on Gaia boot menu is not ‘Snapshot Management’ it is ‘Revert to snapshot’, in that case it should be “A”
