List all snapshots
AI agents call vpsa_list_snapshots to retrieve information from Zadara Storage MCP Server without modifying anything — typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.
This tool retrieves snapshot metadata without creating, modifying, or deleting any resources. It is a read-only operation that returns information about existing snapshots, making it a Read category tool with low severity since misuse only exposes information, not operational or financial impact.
