Greetings all, Wondering if anyone has an existing tool they use to manage BTRFS LXC/LXD snapshots. I could write my own script but was hoping I could leverage something already written (ie: “snapper” like functionality for LXC). We need to keep 7 days’ snapshots then creating a tar archive of day 7 and push it to our backup server. Once the tar file has shipped to the backup server remove all snapshots > 7 days.
As an aside, I feel the the LXC/LXD snapshot feature is not as usable as the BTRFS tool. Creating the snapshot is easy (lxc snapshot <container>), but listing or deleting the snapshots use different syntax (lxc info <container> |grep snapshot). Perhaps future versions of the LXC/LXD command-line tool can make it easier for snapshot maintenance. Something like: lxc snapshot create <container> <snap_name> lxc snapshot list <container> lxc snapshot delete <container>/<snap> Just my $0.02 -Ron _______________________________________________ lxc-users mailing list [email protected] http://lists.linuxcontainers.org/listinfo/lxc-users
