    brief: |
      Create a Filestore snapshot.
    description: |
      Take a Filestore snapshot of an instance file share.

      This command can fail for the following reasons:
        * An instance with the same name already exists.
        * The active account does not have permission to create snapshots.
    examples: |
      To create a snapshot with the name 'my-snapshot' from an instance called 'my-instance' in
      'us-central1-c' and the source file share called 'my-fs', run:

        $ {command} my-snapshot --instance=my-instance --file-share=my-fs
            --instance-zone=us-central1-c

      To create a snapshot with the name 'my-snapshot' 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:

        $ {command} my-snapshot --instance=my-instance --file-share=my-fs
            --instance-zone=us-central1-c --region=us-central1
