On SRX240 there is /sbin/snapshot, and snapshot-dual-root. # Test run on MX960 @mx1.cbg.uk.re0> start shell % su Password: root@mx1% which snapshot /sbin/snapshot root@mx1% snapshot Doing the initial labeling... Verifying compatibility of destination media partitions... Running newfs (3GB) on disk1 media / partition (ad1s1a)... Running newfs (383MB) on disk1 media /config partition (ad1s1e)... Copying / from compact-flash to disk1 (ad1s1a).. (this may take a few minutes) <snip>
