|
To create a snapshot of a Volume:
|
|
|
|
* Click Volumes tab in Horizon and choose “Create Snapshot” from dropdown menu.
|
|
* Unmap disk in Windows VM, then in Horizon click on option “Manage Attachments” -> “Detach Volume”
|
|
|
|
It is possible to create snapshot of attached volume but if any data are writen on it while creating snapshot, it might result in corrupted volume.
|
|
|
|
* Convert snapshot into Volume - “Volume Snapshots” -> “Create Volume”.
|
|
* Map new Volume in your Windows VM.
|
|
|
|
For Linux systems you may mount that newly created Volume and access the data, the filesystem is the same as on the original Volume.
|
|
|
|
For example, if the Volume has one partition and is attached as **/dev/vdc**, do
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
sudo mkdir /my_snapshot1 && sudo mount /dev/vdc1 /my_snapshot1
|
|
|
|
``` |
