You can configure CDR so that the snapshots that comprise the latest Fan-In
Recovery Point will be automatically mounted when it is created. This will affect
all Replication Sets that use the computer as a Fan-In destination. Alternately,

Enter Mount Points dialog box, click the Mount Point column for each
Destination Path and specify a drive letter (e.g.,
G:) to which the snapshot will be mounted.
Ensure that you specify an unused drive letter.
Do not specify mount points for a UNC path. If you specify the mount point for a recovery point on a UNC path,
this mount point is ignored when a recovery point is created on a UNC path.
When a Recovery Point snapshots created with ONTAP snap engine and
Auto-Mount snapshots after Recovery Point Creation option is
selected, share of snapshot will be created.
