Snapshot Troubleshooting

Snapshots require stopped VMs.

yeast down
yeast snapshot web baseline

Restore also requires a stopped VM:

yeast down
yeast restore web baseline

If restore behaves unexpectedly, list snapshots and inspect state:

yeast snapshots web
yeast inspect web

Snapshot Missing

Check the exact instance and snapshot name:

yeast snapshots web

Snapshot names are per instance. A snapshot for web is not automatically a snapshot for another VM.

Restore Did Not Remove A File

Confirm the marker was created after the snapshot:

yeast up
yeast exec web -- test -e /home/yeast/marker
yeast down
yeast restore web baseline
yeast up
yeast exec web -- test ! -e /home/yeast/marker

If the final command fails, inspect the VM and logs before destroying the project.
