Backup

backup [options] <container name> - backup Subutai container

Options:

--full, -f	make full backup  
--stop, -s	stop container at the time of backup

Example:

subutai backup container1

Description:

Subutai backup takes a snapshots of each container's volume and stores it in the /mnt/backups/container_name/datetime/ directory.

A full backup creates a delta-file of each BTRFS subvolume. An incremental backup (default) creates a delta-file with the difference of changes between the current and last snapshots.

All deltas are compressed to archives in /mnt/backups/ directory (container_datetime.tar.gz or container_datetime_Full.tar.gz for full backup).

A changelog file can be found next to backups archive (container_datetime_changelog.txt or container_datetime_Full_changelog.txt) which contains a list of changes made between two backups.
