bosh snapshot
kieran robinson
Hi There,
I have been working on automating a bosh snapshot my initial issue was resolved by setting this parameter in the bosh config
```properties:
director:
enable_snapshots: true
```
With snapshots enabled, once i run [ bosh take snapshot [JOB] [INDEX] ] all seems fine and it says snapshot taken successfully. However once i run [bosh snapshots] it shows there are none...
Any ideas?
Cheers,
Kieran

Could you tell what is an output of `bosh task <snapshot-task-number> --debug` command?
I have seen the same issue, I was able to run snapshot command, but logs contain the error. Also it is possible that your CPI does not have implemented snapshot_disk function. What CPI do you use?

That’s right, I also used vmware cpi. This CPI does not have disk_snapshot function [1]. I raised this question here [2].
You get the number of a task in output of your bosh command. Try to run the command again and look for task string.

Hi Alexander,
We are using VmWare, when you say `bosh task <snapshot-task-number> --debug` where can i find the snapshot-task-number?
