  • Rules​

    • The Snapshot name must be unique; otherwise, the creation will be disallowed.
    • Creating Snapshots from restored Volumes may lead to future conflicts as
  • you can't delete a Volume with an Snapshot and can't delete a Snapshot with a
  • restored Volume, so we recommend avoiding it.

Other commands:​

  • Notes​

    • Use the block-storage volume list command to retrieve a list of all
  • Volumes and obtain the ID of the Volume that will be used to create the
  • Snapshot.

Flags:​

Usage:
  ./mgc block-storage snapshots create [flags]
