ISolidFireElementCreateSnapshot Method (CreateSnapshotRequest) |
CreateSnapshot enables you to create a point-in-time copy of a volume. You can create a snapshot from any volume or from an existing snapshot. If you do not provide a SnapshotID with this API method, a snapshot is created from the volume's active branch.
If the volume from which the snapshot is created is being replicated to a remote cluster, the snapshot can also be replicated to the same target. Use the enableRemoteReplication parameter to enable snapshot replication.
Note: Creating a snapshot is allowed if cluster fullness is at stage 2 or 3. Snapshots are not created when cluster fullness is at stage 4 or 5.
