This data can not be changed.

of type post only. This data can not be changed.
• Description: A description of the snapshot.

or comma-separated key=value list: reason=testing_stuff, user=tux
• Cleanup-Algorithm: Cleanup-algorithm for the snapshot
4.4.1.1 Snapshot Types
Snapper knows three different types of snapshots: pre, post and single. Physically they
do not differ, but Snapper handles them differently.
pre
Snapshot of a lesystem before a modication. Each pre snapshot has got a cor-
responding post snapshot. Used e.g. for the automatic YaST/zypper snapshots.
post
Snapshot of a lesystem after a modication. Each post snapshot has got a cor-
responding pre snapshot. Used e.g. for the automatic YaST/zypper snapshots.
single
Stand-alone snapshot. Used e.g. for the automatic hourly snapshots. This is the
default type when crating snapshots.
