Checking snapshot information explains the feature of snapshots based on hypervisors and the layout of the Snapshot menu page.
Note
Bare metal servers do not provide the snapshot function.
Characteristics of snapshot based on hypervisors are as follows:
- For XEN-based g1 and g2 servers, besides full storage snapshots, you can separately create incremental snapshots. If you create a full storage snapshot, it saves the entire data of the storage based on the creation time. If you create an incremental snapshot, it only saves the changed data of the storage after creating the full storage snapshot.
- On KVM-based g3 generation servers, snapshots are not distinguished. Additionally, you can create a server image using a created snapshot, but operations on the original storage are not available while snapshots are being created, deleted, or edited.
Snapshot page
To check the snapshot page, click the Console > Services > Compute > Server > Snapshot menus, in that order, in NAVER Cloud Platform portal.
The Snapshot page is laid out as follows:
| Field | Description |
|---|---|
| ① Menu name | Name of the menu currently being checked and the number of created snapshots |
| ② Basic features | Features provided upon initial entry to the Snapshot menu
|
| ③ Post-creation features | Features after you create a snapshot
|
| ④ Search window | Search for snapshots by snapshot/original storage/full storage snapshot name
|
| ⑤ Snapshot list | List of created snapshots (See Checking snapshot information) |
