The subvolume itself needs to be set read-only, and of course that can't be done when the whole filesystem is set read- only. But a read-only filesystem should be sufficient, provided it can be forced to remain read-only thru the entire send. I think that's the worry, that someone will switch their system from ro to rw in the middle of a send, thus screwing it up. But they're aware of the problem and should eventually have a fix. But I'm not sure how long as there's other work going on too, of course. -- Duncan - List replies preferred. No HTML msgs.
