24.2. Creating a Stratis snapshot

Prerequisites

• Stratis is installed and the stratisd service is running. For more information, see Installing Stratis.
• You have created a Stratis file system. For more information, see Creating a Stratis file system.

Procedure

• Create a Stratis snapshot:

  # stratis fs snapshot my-pool my-fs my-fs-snapshot

  A snapshot is a first class Stratis file system. You can create multiple Stratis snapshots. These include snapshots of a single origin file system or another snapshot file system. If a file system is a snapshot, then its origin field will display the UUID of its origin file system in the detailed file system listing.
