google_compute_snapshot

Creates a new snapshot of a disk within GCE.

Example Usage

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

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

sourcedisk_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 project in which the resource belongs. If it is not provided, the provider project is used.

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.
sourcedisk_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.
sourcedisk_id - The ID value of the source disk used to create this snapshot. This value may be used to determine whether the snapshot was taken from the current or a previous instance of a given disk name.
sourcedisk - The source disk used to create this snapshot.
self_link - The URI of the created resource.
