We need to create snapshots for CIFS shares and we heard that ZAPI can do it. But in the SDK documentation, it seems ZAPI is not mentioned. Could someone help to post a link to ZAPI documentation?
There is no direct API that can create a snapshot of CIFS shares. You have to first determine the "volume" related to a particular CIFS share and then create a snapshot of that volume. Refer to "cifs" and "snapshot" set of Data ONTAP APIs in the Manage ONTAP SDK documentation bundle in http://communities.netapp.com/docs/DOC-1110
