    There is a need for some additional improvements in recovery function, reuesting for a REST API for snapshot recovery built into Scale software. Pls note- Currently Scale provides similar functionality, the mmxcp API and the CLI of mmrecoverfs, but mmrecverfs API will be the best

    The development of this API will bring a positive impact on improving functionality for all customers who are using Scale
