CloudPools, the OneFS cloud tiering product, can archive datasets that have associated snapshots. However, archiving snapshotted files to the cloud will not result in space savings on the cluster until all the snapshots taken prior to archiving have either expired or been deleted.
Also, as part of a DR process, the on-cluster stub files after a cloud archiving has completed can be snapshotted and replicated to another cluster.
In OneFS 8.2 and later, CloudPools 2.0 delivers increased snapshot efficiency for files with older, unexpired snapshots.
