So, I was playing around with snapshots and trying to come up with a cron
job which would do automatic snapshots of a system, kind of similar to
what you can get with a NetApp. I wrote the attatched (somewhat ugly)
proof of concept script to manage a /.snapshot directory for all the
mounted filesystems on a box. Running this in a tight loop caused some
pretty severe problems where the box would tend to panic if i tried to
remove some of the snapshot files. A whole lot of "rm, panic,
reboot, fsck, wash, rinse, repeat" later I seem to have cleared all
the snapshot files off my system and stabilized it.
My -current snapshot is:
> uname -a

My mounts are:
> mount
/dev/ad0s1a on / (ufs, local, soft-updates)
devfs on /dev (devfs, local)
procfs on /proc (procfs, local)
And my dmesg is attatched.
Incidentally, it might be good to have mount report that a filesystem is
a mounted snapshot. It would make it very easy to grep to select or
remove all the mounted snapshots from the output of mount.
I'm hoping that the rotatesnapshots script is enough to replicate and
identify the bugs. If not, feel free to contact me and I can try to
replicate them on my system to get more information on the specifics of
the panics...
