For non-replicated SSDs and ultra high-speed network storages with three replicas (SSD), the snapshot time is not determined. To create snapshots of local disks residing on [dedicated hosts](../../concepts/dedicated-host.md), use [Yandex Cloud Backup](../../../backup/index.md). This service supports Ubuntu, CentOS, CentOS Stream, and Windows Server. {% list tabs group=instructions %} - Management console {#console} 1. In the [management console](https://console.yandex.cloud), select the folder containing the disk. 1. Navigate to **Compute Cloud**. 1. Open the ![image](../../../_assets/console-icons/hard-drive.svg) **Disks** tab and select the disk. 1. Under **Snapshot schedules**, click ![image](../../../_assets/console-icons/plus.svg) **Edit snapshot schedules**. 1. Select a schedule or create a new one. For more information on schedule settings, see [this guide](../snapshot-control/create-schedule.md). 1. Click **Save**. - CLI {#cli} If you do not have the Yandex Cloud CLI yet, [install and initialize it](../../../cli/quickstart.md#install). The folder used by default is the one specified when [creating](../../../cli/operations/profile/profile-create.md) the CLI profile. To change the default folder, use the `yc config set folder-id ` command. You can also specify a different folder for any command using `--folder-name` or `--folder-id`. If you access a resource by its name, the search will be limited to the default folder. If you access a resource by its ID, the search will be global, i.e., through all folders based on access permissions. 1. See the description of the CLI commands for managing disks and schedules: ```bash yc compute disk --help yc compute snapshot-schedule --help ``` 1. Get the IDs of disks in the default folder: ```bash yc compute disk list --format yaml ``` Result: ```text - id: epdcq9g3co9s******** folder_id: e1ea8s8l71li******** created_at: "2022-10-13T14:37:44Z" name: disk-2 type_id: network-hdd zone_id: ru-central1-a size: "21474836480" block_size: "4096" product_ids: - f2euv1kekdgv******** status: READY source_image_id: fd88d14a6790******** instance_ids: - ephothb6lppn******** disk_placement_policy: {} - id: fhm7mip40dqh******** folder_id: e1ea8s8l71li******** created_at: "2022-10-10T05:00:04Z" name: disk-1 type_id: network-hdd zone_id: ru-central1-a size: "21474836480" block_size: "4096" product_ids: - f2euv1kekdgv******** status: READY source_image_id: fd88d14a6790******** instance_ids: - fhm1c7u23aiq******** disk_placement_policy: {} ``` For more information about the `yc compute disk list` command, see the [CLI reference](../../../cli/cli-ref/compute/cli-ref/disk/list.md). To get a list of disks added to a specific schedule, you can also use this command: ```bash yc compute snapshot-schedule list-disks ``` For details, see [here](../../../cli/cli-ref/compute/cli-ref/snapshot-schedule/list-disks.md). 1. Get the schedule name or ID: ```bash yc compute snapshot-schedule list --format yaml ``` Result: ```text - id: fc852cvb1ipd5******** folder_id: e1ea8s8l71li******** created_at: "2022-09-28T13:25:02Z" name: sched-1 status: ACTIVE schedule_policy: start_at: "2022-10-01T00:00:00Z" expression: 59 14 */1 * * snapshot_spec: {} - id: fc89n1j15l7f******** folder_id: e1ea8s8l71li******** created_at: "2022-09-27T16:04:13Z" name: sched-2 status: ACTIVE schedule_policy: start_at: "1970-01-01T00:00:00Z" expression: 0 */1 * * * retention_period: 3600s snapshot_spec: {} - id: fc8bplhqmh2b******** folder_id: b8gauskl78li******** created_at: "2022-10-03T13:28:01Z" name: sched-3 description: Daily labels: machine: file-server status: ACTIVE schedule_policy: start_at: "2022-12-31T19:04:05Z" expression: 10 19 ? * * snapshot_count: "7" snapshot_spec: {} ``` If you do not have a schedule, [create](../snapshot-control/create-schedule.md) one. 1. Add one or more disks to the schedule: ```bash yc compute snapshot-schedule add-disks \ --disk-id , ``` Result: ```text done (3s) id: fc8e52mvchb2******** folder_id: e1iaui8l7kli******** created_at: "2022-09-28T09:15:28Z" name: sched-1 status: ACTIVE ``` {% endlist %} ## Removing a schedule from a disk {#remove-schedule} {% list tabs group=instructions %} - Management console {#console} 1.
