Snapshot class

Represents a Persistent Disk Snapshot resource.

Use snapshots to back up data from your persistent disks. Snapshots are different from public images and custom images, which are used primarily to create instances or configure instance templates. Snapshots are useful for periodic backup of the data on your persistent disks. You can create snapshots from persistent disks even while they are attached to running instances.

Snapshots are incremental, so you can create regular snapshots on a persistent disk faster and at a much lower cost than if you regularly created a full image of the disk.

Import

Snapshot can be imported using any of these accepted formats:

  • projects/{{project}}/global/snapshots/{{name}}
  • {{project}}/{{name}}
  • {{name}}

When using the pulumi import command, Snapshot can be imported using one of the formats above. For example:

$ pulumi import gcp:compute/snapshot:Snapshot default projects/{{project}}/global/snapshots/{{name}}
$ pulumi import gcp:compute/snapshot:Snapshot default {{project}}/{{name}}
$ pulumi import gcp:compute/snapshot:Snapshot default {{name}}

Constructors

Snapshot(String name, {SnapshotArgs? args, CustomResourceOptions? options})
Creates a new Snapshot. name The Pulumi resource name. args Arguments used to configure this Snapshot. The set of arguments for Snapshot. options Resource options controlling this resource's behavior.
Snapshot.reference(String urn)
Creates a typed reference to an existing Snapshot resource.

Properties

chainName ↔ Output<String?>
Creates the new snapshot in the snapshot chain labeled with the specified name. The chain name must be 1-63 characters long and comply with RFC1035. This is an uncommon option only for advanced service owners who needs to create separate snapshot chains, for example, for chargeback tracking. When you describe your snapshot resource, this field is visible only if it has a non-empty value.
latefinal
childResources → Set<Resource>
finalinherited
completionSources ↔ Map<String, IOutputCompletionSource>
latefinalinherited
creationTimestamp ↔ Output<String>
Creation timestamp in RFC3339 text format.
latefinal
deletionPolicy ↔ Output<String>
Whether Terraform will be prevented from destroying the resource. Defaults to DELETE. When a 'terraform destroy' or 'pulumi up' would delete the resource, the command will fail if this field is set to "PREVENT" in Terraform state. When set to "ABANDON", the command will remove the resource from Terraform management without updating or deleting the resource in the API. When set to "DELETE", deleting the resource is allowed.
latefinal
description ↔ Output<String?>
An optional description of this resource.
latefinal
diskSizeGb ↔ Output<int>
Size of the snapshot, specified in GB.
latefinal
effectiveLabels ↔ Output<Map<String, String>>
All of labels (key/value pairs) present on the resource in GCP, including the labels configured through Pulumi, other clients and services.
latefinal
guestFlush ↔ Output<bool?>
(Optional, Beta) Whether to attempt an application consistent snapshot by informing the OS to prepare for the snapshot process.
latefinal
hashCode → int
The hash code for this object.
no setterinherited
id ↔ Output<String>
getter/setter pairinherited
isCustom → bool
Returns whether this resource is provider-managed.
no setterinherited
isProtected → bool
Returns whether this resource is protected from deletion.
no setterinherited
isRemote → bool
Whether this resource is registered as remote.
no setterinherited
isResourceReference → bool
Whether this instance represents a resource value returned over RPC.
finalinherited
labelFingerprint ↔ Output<String>
The fingerprint used for optimistic locking of this resource. Used internally during updates.
latefinal
labels ↔ Output<Map<String, String>?>
Labels to apply to this Snapshot. Note: This field is non-authoritative, and will only manage the labels present in your configuration. Please refer to the field effectiveLabels for all of the labels present on the resource.
latefinal
licenses ↔ Output<List<String>>
A list of public visible licenses that apply to this snapshot. This can be because the original image had licenses attached (such as a Windows image). snapshotEncryptionKey nested object Encrypts the snapshot using a customer-supplied encryption key.
latefinal
name ↔ Output<String>
Name of the resource; provided by the client when the resource is created. The name must be 1-63 characters long, and comply with RFC1035. Specifically, the name must be 1-63 characters long and match the regular expression a-z? which means the first character must be a lowercase letter, and all following characters must be a dash, lowercase letter, or digit, except the last character, which cannot be a dash.
latefinal
params ↔ Output<SnapshotParams?>
Additional params passed with the request, but not persisted as part of resource payload Structure is documented below.
latefinal
project ↔ Output<String>
The ID of the project in which the resource belongs. If it is not provided, the provider project is used.
latefinal
pulumiLabels ↔ Output<Map<String, String>>
The combination of labels configured directly on the resource and default labels configured on the provider.
latefinal
resourceTransforms → List<ResourceTransform>
Inherited/explicit async transforms.
no setterinherited
runtimeType → Type
A representation of the runtime type of the object.
no setterinherited
The URI of the created resource.
latefinal
snapshotEncryptionKey ↔ Output<SnapshotSnapshotEncryptionKey?>
Encrypts the snapshot using a customer-supplied encryption key. After you encrypt a snapshot using a customer-supplied key, you must provide the same key if you use the snapshot later. For example, you must provide the encryption key when you create a disk from the encrypted snapshot in a future request. Customer-supplied encryption keys do not protect access to metadata of the snapshot. If you do not provide an encryption key when creating the snapshot, then the snapshot will be encrypted using an automatically generated key and you do not need to provide a key to use the snapshot later. Structure is documented below.
latefinal
snapshotId ↔ Output<int>
The unique identifier for the resource.
latefinal
snapshotType ↔ Output<String?>
Indicates the type of the snapshot. Possible values are: ARCHIVE, STANDARD.
latefinal
sourceDisk ↔ Output<String>
A reference to the disk used to create this snapshot.
latefinal
sourceDiskEncryptionKey ↔ Output<SnapshotSourceDiskEncryptionKey?>
The customer-supplied encryption key of the source snapshot. Required if the source snapshot is protected by a customer-supplied encryption key. Structure is documented below.
latefinal
sourceInstantSnapshot ↔ Output<String?>
A reference to the instant snapshot used to create this snapshot.
latefinal
storageBytes ↔ Output<int>
A size of the storage used by the snapshot. As snapshots share storage, this number is expected to change with snapshot creation/deletion.
latefinal
storageLocations ↔ Output<List<String>>
Cloud Storage bucket storage location of the snapshot (regional or multi-regional).
latefinal
transformations → List<ResourceTransformation>
Inherited/explicit legacy transformations.
no setterinherited
urn ↔ Output<String>
latefinalinherited
zone ↔ Output<String>
A reference to the zone where the disk is hosted.
latefinal
