Confusion about snapshots containers

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

 



I have recently switched from multiple partitions with multiple
btrfs's to a flat layout. I will try to keep my question concise.

I am confused as to whether a snapshots container should be a normal
directory or a mountable subvolume. I do not understand how it can be
a normal directory while being at the same level as, for example, a
rootfs subvolume. This is with the understanding that the rootfs is
NOT at the btrfs top level.

Which should it be, a normal directory or a mountable subvolume
directly under btrfs top level? If either way can work, what are the
pros and cons of each?

Thank you
