To create a snapshot in OpenStack, you will first need to shut down the source VM before taking the snapshot. This is to ensure that all data is flushed to disk. If necessary, list the instances to view the instance name.
The following screenshot illustrates how to create a snapshot from a volume in Lightbits.
