An Operation resource. For more information, see Operation.

Field

Description

id

string

ID of the operation.

description

string

Description of the operation. 0-256 characters long.

created_at

google.protobuf.Timestamp

Creation timestamp.

created_by

string

ID of the user or service account who initiated the operation.

modified_at

google.protobuf.Timestamp

The time when the Operation resource was last modified.

done

bool

If the value is false, it means the operation is still in progress.
If true, the operation is completed, and either error or response is available.

metadata

UpdateSnapshotMetadata

Service-specific metadata associated with the operation.
It typically contains the ID of the target resource that the operation is performed on.
Any method that returns a long-running operation should document the metadata type, if any.

error

google.rpc.Status

The error result of the operation in case of failure or cancellation.

Includes only one of the fields error, response.

The operation result.
If done == false and there was no failure detected, neither error nor response is set.
If done == false and there was a failure detected, error is set.
If done == true, exactly one of error or response is set.

response

Snapshot

The normal response of the operation in case of success.
If the original method returns no data on success, such as Delete,
the response is google.protobuf.Empty.
If the original method is the standard Create/Update,
the response should be the target resource of the operation.
Any method that returns a long-running operation should document the response type, if any.

Includes only one of the fields error, response.

The operation result.
If done == false and there was no failure detected, neither error nor response is set.
If done == false and there was a failure detected, error is set.
If done == true, exactly one of error or response is set.

UpdateSnapshotMetadataUpdateSnapshotMetadata

Field

Description

snapshot_id

string

ID of the Snapshot resource that is being updated.

SnapshotSnapshot

A Snapshot resource. For more information, see Snapshots.

Field

Description

id

string

ID of the snapshot.

folder_id

string

ID of the folder that the snapshot belongs to.

created_at

google.protobuf.Timestamp

name

string

Name of the snapshot. 1-63 characters long.

description

string

Description of the snapshot. 0-256 characters long.

labels

object (map<string, string>)

Resource labels as key:value pairs. Maximum of 64 per resource.

storage_size

int64

Size of the snapshot, specified in bytes.

disk_size

int64

Size of the disk when the snapshot was created, specified in bytes.

product_ids[]

string

License IDs that indicate which licenses are attached to this resource.
License IDs are used to calculate additional charges for the use of the virtual machine.

The correct license ID is generated by the platform. IDs are inherited by new resources created from this resource.

If you know the license IDs, specify them when you create the image.
For example, if you create a disk image using a third-party utility and load it into Object Storage, the license IDs will be lost.
You can specify them in the yandex.cloud.compute.v1.ImageService.Create request.

status

enum Status

Current status of the snapshot.

  • STATUS_UNSPECIFIED
  • CREATING: Snapshot is being created.
  • READY: Snapshot is ready to use.
  • ERROR: Snapshot encountered a problem and cannot operate.
  • DELETING: Snapshot is being deleted.

source_disk_id

string

ID of the source disk used to create this snapshot.

hardware_generation

HardwareGeneration

If specified, forces the same HardwareGeneration features to be applied to the instance
created using this snapshot as source for the boot disk. Otherwise the current default will be used.

kms_key

KMSKey

Key encryption key info.

HardwareGenerationHardwareGeneration

A set of features, specific to a particular Compute hardware generation.
They are not necessary supported by every host OS or distro, thus they are fixed to an image
and are applied to all instances created with it as their boot disk image.
These features significantly determine how the instance is created, thus cannot be changed after the fact.

Field

Description

legacy_features

LegacyHardwareFeatures

Includes only one of the fields legacy_features, generation2_features.

generation2_features

Generation2HardwareFeatures

Includes only one of the fields legacy_features, generation2_features.

LegacyHardwareFeaturesLegacyHardwareFeatures

A first hardware generation, by default compatible with all legacy images.
Allows switching to PCI_TOPOLOGY_V2 and back.

Field

Description

pci_topology

enum PCITopology

  • PCI_TOPOLOGY_UNSPECIFIED
  • PCI_TOPOLOGY_V1
  • PCI_TOPOLOGY_V2

Generation2HardwareFeaturesGeneration2HardwareFeatures

A second hardware generation, which by default assumes PCI_TOPOLOGY_V2
and UEFI boot (with UEFI related features).

Field

Description

Empty

KMSKeyKMSKey

Field

Description

key_id

string

ID of KMS symmetric key

version_id
