Send/Receive Use Case

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Hi,

There are 4 things I’m not sure about re:send/receive.

1) Is it possible to first copy things on a file system using rsync and then use send-receive ? And to subsequently mix rsync and send-receive ? Provided that snapshots are made accordingly.

2) Is possible to “send" a snapshot diff to disk and then “receive" it from the said disk into a remote filesystem ? I have two very large and physically distant btrfs filesystems. It would be more economical to juste dump snapshot diffs to disk for transport instead of the network.

3) How are “conflicts” handled by send-receive if at all ?

4) If a file is created, modified and then deleted in-between two snapshots is it ignored by send/receive or does send/receive "re-enacts” the journal exactly ?

Thanks,

Vincent--
