For backing up to another file system? How so? Is there something like "zfs send" or even "xfsdump"?
Honest question - I haven't look that closely at btrfs.
- Vogtinator 9y agoYes, "btrfs send" and "receive" exist for that purpose.
- chungy 9y agoMind that it doesn't work quite so well as ZFS: btrfs send/receive doesn't produce an identical file system as the source. ctimes aren't preserved, some attributes, and depending on mount options, ACLs and xattrs can vanish too.
