= Creating a snapshot by using the web console
|
|
|
|
[role="_abstract"]
|
|
You can create a snapshot of a virtual machine (VM) by using the {product-title} web console.
|
|
|
|
.Prerequisites
|
|
|
|
* The `snapshot` feature gate is enabled in the YAML configuration of the `kubevirt` CR.
|
|
|
|
* The VM snapshot includes disks that meet the following requirements:
|
|
** The disks are data volumes or persistent volume claims.
|
|
** The disks belong to a storage class that supports Container Storage Interface (CSI) volume snapshots.
|
|
** The disks are _bound_ to a persistent volume (PV) and _populated_ with a datasource.
|
|
|
|
.Procedure
|
|
|
|
. Navigate to *Virtualization* -> *VirtualMachines* in the web console.
|
|
. Select a VM to open the *VirtualMachine details* page.
|
|
. Click the *Snapshots* tab and then click *Take Snapshot*.
|
|
+
|
|
Alternatively, right-click the VM and select *Create snapshot* from the pop-up menu.
|
|
. Enter the snapshot name.
|
|
. Expand *Disks included in this Snapshot* to see the storage volumes to be included in the snapshot.
|
|
. If your VM has disks that cannot be included in the snapshot and you wish to proceed, select *I am aware of this warning and wish to proceed*.
|
|
. Click *Save*.
