    Server-level backups should be the same process as creating a snapshot. User should be able to set daily time-frame during which the backups occur. Backups should occur as server snapshots, created while the server is live. They should be stored i...

    Snapshot tree

    Hi, When snapshot count reaches a dozen it becomes quite difficult to figure out which has been created from which. I think to have a tree of snapshots is a good solution, like it's implemented by VMWare and Oracle in their virtualization softwar...

    Email alerts option for Snapshots and other long running operations

    Add slug to snapshot during snapshot creation

    After snapshot creation, the slug value of the snapshot is null. It will be useful e.g. in Vagrant with digitalocean plugin. Now I can't create a droplet from my snapshot by Vagrant, because the snapshot doesn't have got a slug value.
