Which command disables client access to Snapshot copies on a volume called flexvol1?

• A. Cifs Shares -Change Flexvol1 -Nosnap
• B. Vol Options Flexvol1 Snapdir Off
• C. Vol Options Flexvol1 Nosnapdir On
• D. Vol Options Flexvol1 Snapdir On

Answer: (C)

Disabling access to Snapshot copies is achieved by not exposing the .snapshot directory on the volume. In 7-Mode, you do this by turning the Nosnapdir option on for that volume. Setting vol options flexvol1 nosnapdir on prevents the .snapshot directory from being created or shown, so clients cannot browse or reach snapshot copies stored on flexvol1. The command vol options flexvol1 nosnapdir on is the correct way to enforce this. Other options won’t achieve the same effect: using a CIFS Shares command isn’t the correct interface for volume-level snapshot access control, and turning snapdir off hides the directory listing but may not fully prevent access if a path is known. Keeping the snapshot directory visible (snapdir on) obviously allows client access.
