By default, only differences in requested ports are shown. *--delete ID*:: Delete the snapshot with the given ID number. *--help*:: Display brief usage information. include::global-flags.txt[] *-N*:: Non-interactive mode, create snapshots without asking for confirmation when there are inactive ports that will not be included.
