Group Snaps using pxctl

This document explains how to take group snapshots of your container data with Portworx. Run the pxctl volume snapshot group command with the --help flag to list the available subcommands and flags.

To take a group snapshot of the volumes labelled with v1=x1, use this command:

pxctl volume snapshot group --label v1=x1
Volume 549285969696152595 : Snapshot 1026872711217134654
Volume 952350606466932557 : Snapshot 218459942880193319

You can easily group volumes by IDs and take a group snapshot with the --volume_ids flag:

pxctl volume snapshot group --volume_ids 83958335106174418,874802361339616936
Volume 83958335106174418 : Snapshot 362408823552094597
Volume 874802361339616936 : Snapshot 895516478416742770
