Content-Type: text/plain; charset=ISO-8859-1; format=flowed Sender: linux-btrfs-owner@vger.kernel.org List-ID: It is very difficult for me to find any good documentation on send & receive commands. Event the most recent btrfs progs man page (accessed from git today) says nothing. I want to migrate data (including numerous read only snaphots) from linux-raid - based storage into a native raid btrfs. I think that cloning via send & receive is a viable option. Can anyone help me please? I've posted my question also on stackexchange: http://unix.stackexchange.com/questions/63528/how-to-clone-btrfs-filesystem-into-different-medium-preserving-snapshots-sharin . I will post the answer there, so everyone can benefit from it. Thank you, Adam Ryczkowski +48505919892 Skype:sisteczko
