Data recovery from snapshots ....Does this problem still exist?

Does this still apply when recoveryinh from snapshots?

 

A long time ago NetApp used to have this behaviour which could prove to be disasterous if you were not aware of it. 

 

 

Scenario :  Taking daily snapshots and keeping them for about a month. 

 

Potential problem :  If you recover a volume from a snapshot 20 days ago all the snapshots taken between now and that recovery point are lost - correct?

 

If you have gone too far back in time there is no way getting back the data bewteen now and the 20 days once the volume has been recovered.

 

 

Recovering directories from a snapshot also has the same probelm?
