Subject: Is it possible to use send & receive features to clone the btrfs partition efficiently (including all snapshots inside)?
Date: Sun, 03 Feb 2013 14:33:08 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <510E6714.7040206@statystyka.net> (raw)

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,
