where <code><server-name></code> should be replaced with the name of your server. The command only includes the VM's root drive (e.g. /dev/vda) in the image. This means that ephemeral drives and non-boot attached volumes are not included in the image and additional measures should be taken to preserve this data. In addition, a running VM which is writing to disk while the image is being created, may leave the file system in an inconsistent state. It is recommended that a VM be shutdown (not terminated) before an image is created from it.

In addition, if the VM is writing to disk while the image is being created the file system may be captured in an inconsistent state. We recommend the VM be shut down (not terminated) before an image is created from it.
