DOSnapshot

By far my favorite tool. First commit on GitHub was in July of 2014, so it’s relatively new and seems to work very well.

I love that it starts droplets back up when it’s done taking the snapshot.

This is the only tool I use to make snapshots.

Great tool. Thanks!

Hi Admin, Im having problems to use DoSnapshot.

do_snapshot --digital-ocean-client-id ****** --digital-ocean-api-key “my api key” Start performing operations Droplet Listing is failed to retrieve Access Denied

come up with Access Denied, why ?

Cheers J

Now it works on API V2 Too.

Hi Admin, im using dosnapshot v1 and working perfectly but cant delete the old snapshot. the command i used is do_snapshot -k 7 --digital-ocean-client-id xxxxx --digital-ocean xxxx

at moment , just doing snapshot but without delete the old snapshot . Can you help me ?

Cheers J

Hello, can you post your full log? To get it just run do_snapshot with -v option.

ok, which version of do_snapshot? and which version of ruby you have, or installation type?

Most useful and elegant tool that I can find to do this! Bravo and many thanks. To properly work I am having to add option -d 30 or else the script comes out claiming that droplet not powered off!

Good morning, I have used your tool for more than a year so far with only occasional hiccups. Thank you so much for that. However starting a week ago I am having problems. I am using the following command:

do_snapshot --only $HSET_IN $SRITONI_WS1 --keep 2 -c -v -p 2 --stop-by-power

And I get the following error:

Shutting down droplet. Droplet id: xxxxxxx is Failed to Power Off. DoSnapshot::DropletShutdownError

Actually the droplets were powered off but the script is unable to synchronize with this apparently?

Any help would be appreciated.

Also, I would like to donate and so can you please setup a paypal?

Thanks,

Madhu

Now that snapshots can be created without shutting down a droplet, what changes need to be made to DOsnapshot?
