NAME
    gcloud alpha filestore backups create - create a Filestore backup

SYNOPSIS
    gcloud alpha filestore backups create BACKUP --file-share=FILE_SHARE
        --instance=INSTANCE --instance-zone=INSTANCE_ZONE --region=REGION
        [--async] [--description=DESCRIPTION] [--labels=KEY=VALUE]
        [GCLOUD_WIDE_FLAG ...]

DESCRIPTION
    (ALPHA) Create a Filestore backup of an instance file share.

    This command can fail for the following reasons:
      ▪ A backup with the same name already exists.
      ▪ The active account does not have permission to create backups.

EXAMPLES
    To create a backup with the name 'my-backup' and description 'My backup
    description' in a particular region like 'us-central1' from an instance
    called 'my-instance' in 'us-central1-c' and the source file share called
    'my-fs', run:

        $ gcloud alpha filestore backups create my-backup \
            --instance=my-instance --file-share=my-fs \
            --instance-zone=us-central1-c --region=us-central1 \
            --description="My backup description"
