Say what?!? I use btrfs for my backups...
- M95D 11mo ago> I use btrfs for my backups... Say what?!? I got burned too. I made a snapshot and "btrfs send" it by pipe to an xz archive. When I tried to restore, I got a CRC error (from "btrfs receive", not xz). Everything lost. There's no way to restore it now.
- nolist_policy 11mo agoThere could very well be bitrot in your xz archive without xz detecting it: https://www.nongnu.org/lzip/xz_inadequate.html#checking https://www.nongnu.org/lzip/xz_inadequate.html#checking
