Working with Snapshots and Undo Disks 147
Overview of Snapshots
Snapshot is a state of the virtual machine saved at a certain moment. Snapshots can be created
when the virtual machine is running as well as when it is stopped, paused or suspended.
Warning. You can create a snapshot at any time. But it is recommended that before you take
a snapshot, you complete all operations of installing, downloading, and writing to external
devices. You should also complete or cancel any transactions performed via the virtual
machine in external data bases.
You may need to make snapshots in the following cases:
Make successive backups as snapshots and thus save space on the hard disk of your
Macintosh computer.
Configure software that requires a lot of configuring stages. Since at each stage you can
select alternative settings, you may want to explore which settings to select. Create
snapshots at branching points.
In development process, mark milestones as snapshots. If something goes wrong, you can
always revert to the previous state or create a branch of snapshots starting with the particular
milestone snapshot.
Note. Snapshots cannot be created for the virtual machine that uses the Boot Camp partition.
Every snapshot includes the following additional information:
Date and time when this snapshot was created.
Current snapshot name.
Guest OS screenshot.
Snapshots Files
When the first snapshot is saved, the following objects are created:
snapshots.xml - This file stores the information about virtual machine snapshots.
The Snapshots folder - Snapshot files are placed into this folder.
Virtual disk difference files (for the snapshots created for the virtual machine).
The snapshots.xml file and Snapshots folder are located in the virtual machine
configuration file. The default location of this folder is </Documents/Parallels/<VM
Name>.
The virtual disk difference files are located in appropriate .hdd bundle files.
