google_compute_snapshot

Creates a new snapshot of a disk within GCE. For more information see the official documentation and API.

Example Usage

resource "google_compute_snapshot" "default" {
  name        = "test-snapshot"
  source_disk = "test-disk"
  zone        = "us-central1-a"

  labels {
    my-label = "my-label-value"
  }
}

Argument Reference

The following arguments are supported:

• name - (Required) A unique name for the resource, required by GCE. Changing this forces a new resource to be created.

• zone - (Required) The zone where the source disk is located.

• source_disk - (Required) The disk which will be used as the source of the snapshot.

---

• source_disk_encryption_key_raw - (Optional) A 256-bit [customer-supplied encryption key] (https://cloud.google.com/compute/docs/disks/customer-supplied-encryption), encoded in RFC 4648 base64 to decrypt the source disk.

• snapshot_encryption_key_raw - (Optional) A 256-bit [customer-supplied encryption key] (https://cloud.google.com/compute/docs/disks/customer-supplied-encryption), encoded in RFC 4648 base64 to encrypt this snapshot.

• project - (Optional) The ID of the project in which the resource belongs. If it is not provided, the provider project is used.

• labels - (Optional) A set of key/value label pairs to assign to the snapshot.

Attributes Reference

In addition to the arguments listed above, the following computed attributes are exported:

• snapshot_encryption_key_sha256 - The [RFC 4648 base64] (https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc4648#section-4) encoded SHA-256 hash of the customer-supplied encryption key that protects this resource.

• source_disk_encryption_key_sha256 - The [RFC 4648 base64] (https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc4648#section-4) encoded SHA-256 hash of the customer-supplied encryption key that protects the source disk.

• source_disk_link - The URI of the source disk.

• self_link - The URI of the created resource.

• label_fingerprint - The unique fingerprint of the labels.
