Use BTRFS Snapshots For Backups =============================== btrfs-snapshots.sh ------------------ Creates a snapshot for all btrfs volumes specified. Snapshot is named from the subvol name or if there is no subvol, from the path by appending `-snapshot-YYYY-MM-DD-HH-mm`. To create regular snapshots on a daily base, just run: sudo cp btrfs-snapshots.sh /etc/cron.daily/btrfs-snapshots If `btrfs-snapshots` is run from a `cron.daily`, `cron.hourly`, `cron. monthly` or `cron.weekly` directory, the periodity is automatically appended to the snapshot name, and the expiry is set meaningfull. Try: `btrfs-snapshots.sh --help`
