Create a Filestore backup of an instance file share.
This command can fail for the following reasons:
A backup with the same name already exists.
The active account does not have permission to create backups.
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:
$ gcloud filestore backups create my-backup --instance=my-instance \ --file-share=my-fs --instance-zone=us-central1-c \ --region=us-central1 --description="My backup description"
