Provision to create snapshots
You can create space optimized snapshots of a volume by using the docker volume CLI.
- To create a snapshot of volume vol1 named snapvol1.
# docker volume create -d veritas --name snapvol1 -o sourcevol=vol1 [-o cachesize=<cachesize>]
Note:
The option cachesize is optional. If this option is not provided then space optimized snapshot with the default cachesize is created. Currently the default cachesize value is 30% of the source volume size.
