# Customer intent: "As an IT administrator using Azure NetApp Files, I want to obtain detailed information about snapshots and replication status, so that I can monitor backup and disaster recovery processes effectively."

# Obtain details using Azure Application Consistent Snapshot tool
This article provides a guide for running the details command of the Azure Application Consistent Snapshot tool that you can use with Azure NetApp Files.
## Introduction
The `azacsnap -c details` command lists the details of the snapshots (volume name, snapshot name, creation time, comments, snapshot size) stored on all the volumes in the configuration file. The console output can be pasted into a spreadsheet for further analysis.
Due to information stored in the back-end systems, the output of the command is slightly different
when run on **Azure Large Instance** versus **Azure NetApp Files**.
## Command options
The `-c details` command has the following options:
- `--details snapshots` Provides a list of basic details about the snapshots for each volume that has been configured. This command can be run on the primary server or on a server in the disaster-recovery location. The command provides the following information broken down by each volume that contains snapshots:
- Size of total snapshots in a volume.
- Each snapshot in that volume includes the following details:
- Snapshot name
- Create time
- Size of the snapshot
- Frequency of the snapshot
- `--details replication` Provides basic details around the replication status from the production site to the disaster-recovery site. The command provides output to allow for monitoring to ensure replication is taking place. It shows the size of the items that are being replicated. It also provides guidance if replication is taking too long or if the link is down.
- `[--configfile <config filename>]` is an optional parameter allowing for custom configuration file names.
### Output of the `azacsnap -c details --details snapshots` command
The example below has been executed on an **Azure Large Instance** and the output has been trimmed for
brevity. Also be aware some of the lines may have been wrapped to fit the output.
```bash
azacsnap -c details --details snapshots
```
```output
List snapshot details called with snapshotFilter ''
