PROGRAM:
NAME
lxc-snapshot - Snapshot an existing container.
SYNOPSIS
lxc-snapshot {-n, --name name} [-c, --comment file]
lxc-snapshot {-n, --name name} {-d, -destroy snapshot-name}
lxc-snapshot {-n, --name name} {-L, --list } [-C, --showcomments ]
lxc-snapshot {-n, --name name} {-r, -restore snapshot-name} [-N, --newname newname]
DESCRIPTION
lxc-snapshot creates, lists, and restores container snapshots.
Snapshots are stored as snapshotted containers under the container's configuration path.
For instance, if the container's configuration path is /var/lib/lxc and the container is
c1, then the first snapshot will be stored as container snap0 under the path
/var/lib/lxc/c1/snaps. If /var/lib/lxcsnaps, as used by LXC 1.0, already exists, then it
will continue to be used.
OPTIONS
-c,--comment comment_file
Associate the comment in comment_file with the newly created snapshot.
-d,--destroy snapshot-name
Destroy the named snapshot. If the named snapshot is ALL, then all snapshots will
be destroyed.
-L,--list
List existing snapshots.
-C,--showcomments
Show snapshot comments in the snapshots listings.
-r,--restore snapshot-name
Restore the named snapshot, meaning a full new container is created which is a copy
of the snapshot.
-N, --newname
When restoring a snapshot, the last optional argument if not given explicitly via
--newname is the name to use for the restored container. If the newname is
identical to the original name of the container, then the original container will
be destroyed and the restored container will take its place. Note that deleting the
original snapshot is not possible in the case of aufs, overlayfs or zfs backed
snapshots.
