I recommend checking the wiki if you haven't already. [1]
Below is an initial example that requires root privileges. Have you tried it yet?

```
sudo btrfs subvolume snapshot / /var/lib/machines/test-snapshot
sudo machinectl start test-snapshot
systemctl status [email protected]
journalctl -b -u [email protected]
sudo machinectl list
sudo machinectl shell test-snapshot
sudo machinectl stop test-snapshot
```

Best,
M.

I will give that a try, I forgot to add btrfs-progs to add to the root subvolume. I should be able to create some snapshots to try on this system this afternoon.

I have read/followed the wiki, that is why I decided to try this.
Both the btrfs and nspawn.

I am quite sure I will make a grand mess of this before I figure it out.

Again Thank you
