Share snapshots
===============
The Shared File Systems service provides a snapshot mechanism to help users
restore data by running the :command:`manila snapshot-create` command.
To export a snapshot, create a share from it, then mount the new share
to an instance. Copy files from the attached share into the archive.
To import a snapshot, create a new share with appropriate size, attach it to
instance, and then copy a file from the archive to the attached file
system.
.. note::
You cannot delete a share while it has saved dependent snapshots.
Create a snapshot from the share:
.. code-block:: console
$ manila snapshot-create Share1 --name Snapshot1 --description "Snapshot of Share1"

| share_size | 1 |

+-------------+--------------------------------------+
Update snapshot name or description if needed:
.. code-block:: console
$ manila snapshot-rename Snapshot1 Snapshot_1 --description "Snapshot of Share1. Updated."
Check that status of a snapshot is ``available``:
.. code-block:: console
$ manila snapshot-show Snapshot1

To create a copy of your data from a snapshot, use :command:`manila create`
with key ``--snapshot-id``. This creates a new share from an
existing snapshot. Create a share from a snapshot and check whether it is
available:
.. code-block:: console
$ manila create nfs 1 --name Share2 --metadata source=snapshot --description "Share from a snapshot." --snapshot-id 962e8126-35c3-47bb-8c00-f0ee37f42ddd

By default, the Shared File Systems service will place the new share in the
source share's pool, unless a different destination availability zone is
provided by the user, using the key ``--availability-zone``.
Starting from Ussuri release, a new filter and weigher were added to the
scheduler to enhance the selection of a destination pool when creating shares
from snapshot. Drivers that support creating shares from snapshots across back
ends also need the back end configuration option ``replication_domain`` to be
specified. This option can be an arbitrary string. As an administrator, you are
expected to determine which back ends are compatible to copy data between each
other. Once you have identified these back ends, configure
``replication_domain`` in their respective configuration sections to the same
string. Refer to the
:ref:`feature support mapping <share_back_ends_feature_support_mapping>`
for identifying which back ends support this feature. The use of scheduler when
creating share from a snapshot must be enabled using the configuration flag
``[DEFAULT]/use_scheduler_creating_share_from_snapshot``. This option is
disabled by default.
.. note::
When combining both ``--snapshot-id`` and ``--availability-zone`` keys,
you'll need to make sure that the configuration flag
``[DEFAULT]/use_scheduler_creating_share_from_snapshot`` is enabled, or the
operation will be denied when source and destination availability zones are
different.
You can soft-delete a snapshot using :command:`manila snapshot-delete
<snapshot_name_or_ID>`. If a snapshot is in busy state, and during
the delete an ``error_deleting`` status appeared, administrator can
force-delete it or explicitly reset the state.
Use :command:`snapshot-reset-state [--state <state>] <snapshot>` to update
the state of a snapshot explicitly. A valid value of a status are
``available``, ``error``, ``creating``, ``deleting``, ``error_deleting``.
If no state is provided, the ``available`` state will be used.
Use :command:`manila snapshot-force-delete <snapshot>` to force-delete
a specified share snapshot in any state.
