A user of a workstation has a home directory /home/john as a subvolume. I wrote a cron job to make read-only snapshots of it under /home/john/backup which was fortunate as they just ran a script that did something like "rm -rf ~".
Apart from copying dozens of gigs of data back, is there a good way of recovering it all? Whatever you suggest isn't going to work for this time (the copy is almost done) but will be useful for next time. I'm guessing that I can't delete a subvol that has other subvols under it. Should I have put the backups under /backup instead so that I could just delete the corrupted subvol and make a read-write snapshot of the last good one? -- My Main Blog http://etbe.coker.com.au/ My Documents Blog http://doc.coker.com.au/ -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-btrfs" in the body of a message to majord...@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
