Sorry. It's been a Hell of a week. What I _should_ have written: * Create a copy, via rsync, on the destination host. This is my "origin" * Create a CoW snapshot of the origin -- giving snapshots datestamps * rsync to the new snapshot * create a (datestamped) snapshot of the newly-rsync'd-to snapshot * rsync to *that* * Rinse and repeat daily And, finally, delete -- or, rather, "btrfs sub del" -- whatever snapshots are outside of my retention period. -K _______________________________________________ gnhlug-discuss mailing list gnhlug-discuss@mail.gnhlug.org http://mail.gnhlug.org/mailman/listinfo/gnhlug-discuss/
