Sun has created a utility that lets you manage automated snaphots, as detailed here: http://blogs.sun.com/timf/entry/ zfs_automatic_snapshots_now_with Has anyone looked into a method to accomplish something similar on the FreeBSD port? A lot of the value in snaphots lie in the .zfs directories where users can fish out backups of their damaged or deleted files without help from an admin - but for this to work there has to be a system in place that makes new snaphots on a schedule, and also purges the snaphots that have become too old. This is probably going to require some fancy scripting, so i'm curious if anyone has made a set of scripts to do it on freebsd yet? It's probably not possible to port over this thing sun made since it's a plugin for their solaris service control system... -SverreReceived on Fri Sep 28 2007 - 20:23:10 UTC
