Okay that doesn't sound like it was very trustworthy... :-/ Especially this from the manpage: You must not specify clone sources unless you guarantee that these snapshots are exactly in the same state on both sides—both for the sender and the receiver. I mean what should the user ever be able to guarantee... respectively what's meant with above? If the tools or any option combination thereof would allow one to create corrupted send/received shapthots, then there's not much a user can do. If this sentence just means that the user mustn't have manually hacked some UUIDs or so... well then I guess that's anyway clear and the sentence is just confusing. > but I guess it's not a priority for the devs Since it seems to be a valuable feature with probably little chances to get it working in the foreseeable future, I've added it as a feature request to the long term records ;-) https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=211521 Cheers, Chris.
