Rsync everything to subdirs within one subvolume, then do timed or event-based snapshots of it. You only need more than one trail if you want different retention policies for different datasets (e.g. in my case I have 91 and 31 days). -- With respect, Roman -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-btrfs" in the body of a message to majord...@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
