Subject: Recursive delete file from all subvolumes (snapshots)
Date: Fri, 15 Jan 2016 09:33:14 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <15624885.ucZm0n36hp@discus> (raw)
Dear all,
I have a btrfs raid 10 from which I take hourly snapshots using snapper. Now,
I wonder, if there is a way to delete a file together with all its occurrences
in all snapshots.
My use case is, that the file I want to delete is large, and I want to free its
space on disk. Thus, I have to get rid of its "live" version but also of all
references to it in snapshots.
Thank,
Wolfgang
