New-PveNodesLxcSnapshot

Snapshot a container.

API: POST /nodes/{node}/lxc/{vmid}/snapshot, Proxmox VE API viewer

Aliases: Create-PveLxcSnapshot

New-PveNodesLxcSnapshot
[-PveTicket <PveTicket>]
[-Description <string>]
-Node <string>
-Snapname <string>
-Vmid <int>
[<CommonParameters>]
Parameter Type Required Description
-PveTicket PveTicket No Ticket data connection.
-Description string No A textual description or comment.
-Node string Yes The cluster node name.
-Snapname string Yes The name of the snapshot.
-Vmid int Yes The (unique) ID of the VM.

Every parameter also binds by property name from the pipeline, so an object with node and vmid properties (the output of Get-PveGuest, for one) fills -Node and -Vmid. Without -PveTicket the cmdlet uses the last connection, see Connection.

A PveResponse: the data returned by Proxmox VE is in .Response.data, the outcome in .IsSuccessStatusCode. See Results and Errors.
