  • 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:
gcloudfilestorebackupscreatemy-backup--instance=my-instance--file-share=my-fs--instance-zone=us-central1-c--region=us-central1--description="My backup description"
