I have an interesting problem. I have a bunch of random files in multiple locations I want to restore from snapshots. I know I can restore them from .snapshots and previous version in the OS, but this does not preserve the ownership of the files. I want to use something like NDMPCOPY to restore the files and pass it a list of files to restore (as a single operation). Does anyone know of a way to do this?

Thanks in advance!

Not sure if you can use NDMPCOPY, but I used robocopy for this in the past. (Copy from Snapshot directory to live directory with ACLs)

yeah, I think I found my answer, it's not the prettiest: volume snapshot restore-file (but it's super fast). So I can build out all my commands. I recently purchased cryptospike and they may have a way to do this. Can't say enough good things about this product so far.
