rusnapshot: Restore a snapshot.
$ sudo rusnapshot -c ${path-to-config-toml} --id ${snapshot_id} --restore
try on your machine

This is a command that uses the "rusnapshot" utility with elevated privileges (sudo) to restore a snapshot based on the provided parameters.

Here's a breakdown of the command:

  • "sudo": It stands for "superuser do" and allows the command to be executed with administrative/root privileges. This may be required to perform certain actions or access specific files.

  • "rusnapshot": It is the name of the utility or program being executed. It is assumed to be properly installed and available in the system's PATH.

  • "-c ${path-to-config-toml}": This option specifies the path to a configuration file in TOML format. TOML is a human-readable configuration format, and this file likely contains various settings for the snapshot operation.

  • "--id ${snapshot_id}": This option specifies the identifier (ID) of the snapshot that should be restored. The specific value of "${snapshot_id}" should be replaced with the actual snapshot ID.

  • "--restore": This option instructs the "rusnapshot" utility to perform a restore operation based on the provided parameters.

Overall, this command executes the "rusnapshot" program with administrative privileges, using a specified configuration file and snapshot ID to restore a particular snapshot.
