What scripts are people using for this? I've attached the latest scripts I use for managing BTRFS, they assume that the filesystem is mounted on root. They use /backup for snapshots of root and /backup-$DIR for snapshots of /$DIR. I've also attached the scrub and rebalance script I use. These aren't the greatest scripts, I'll probably write something better eventually if no-one else has done so. -- My Main Blog http://etbe.coker.com.au/ My Documents Blog http://doc.coker.com.au/
