btrfs-subvolume(8)
|
||||
==================
|
||||
|
||||
NAME
|
||||
----
|
||||
btrfs-subvolume - control btrfs subvolume(s)
|
||||
|
||||
SYNOPSIS
|
||||
--------
|
||||
'btrfs subvolume' <subcommand> [<args>]
|
||||
|
||||
DESCRIPTION
|
||||
-----------
|
||||
'btrfs subvolume' is used to control the filesystem to create/delete/list/show
|
||||
subvolumes and snapshots.
|
||||
|
||||
SUBVOLUME AND SNAPSHOT
|
||||
----------------------
|
||||
A subvolume in btrfs is not like an LVM logical volume, which is quite
|
||||
independent from each other, a btrfs subvolume has its hierarchy and relations
|
||||
between other subvolumes.
|
||||
|
||||
A subvolume in btrfs can be accessed in two ways.
|
||||
|
||||
1. From the parent subvolume +
|
||||
When accessing from the parent subvolume, the subvolume can be used just
|
||||
like a directory. It can have child subvolumes and its own files/directories.
|
||||
|
||||
2. Separate mounted filesystem +
|
||||
When `mount`(8) using 'subvol' or 'subvolid' mount option, one can access
|
||||
files/directories/subvolumes inside it, but nothing in parent subvolumes.
|
||||
|
||||
Also every btrfs filesystem has a default subvolume as its initially top-level
|
||||
subvolume, whose subvolume id is 5(FS_TREE).
|
||||
|
||||
A btrfs snapshot is much like a subvolume, but shares its data(and metadata)
|
||||
with other subvolume/snapshot. Due to the capabilities of COW, modifications
|
||||
inside a snapshot will only show in a snapshot but not in its source subvolume.
|
||||
|
||||
Although in btrfs, subvolumes/snapshots are treated as directories, only
|
||||
subvolume/snapshot can be the source of a snapshot, snapshot can not be made
|
||||
from normal directories.
|
||||
|
||||
SUBCOMMAND
|
||||
-----------
|
||||
'create' [-i <qgroupid>] [<dest>]<name>::
|
||||
Create a subvolume <name> in <dest>.
|
||||
+
|
||||
If <dest> is not given, subvolume <name> will be created in the currently
|
||||
directory.
|
||||
+
|
||||
`Options`
|
||||
+
|
||||
-i <qgroupid>::::
|
||||
Add the newly created subvolume to a qgroup. This option can be given multiple
|
||||
times.
|
||||
|
||||
'delete' [options] <subvolume> [<subvolume>...]::
|
||||
Delete the subvolume(s) from the filesystem.
|
||||
+
|
||||
If <subvolume> is not a subvolume, btrfs returns an error but continues if
|
||||
there are more arguments to process.
|
||||
+
|
||||
The corresponding directory is removed instantly but the data blocks are
|
||||
removed later. The deletion does not involve full commit by default due to
|
||||
performance reasons (as a consequence, the subvolume may appear again after a
|
||||
crash). Use one of the '--commit' options to wait until the operation is safely
|
||||
stored on the media.
|
||||
+
|
||||
`Options`
|
||||
+
|
||||
-c|--commit-after::::
|
||||
wait for transaction commit at the end of the operation
|
||||
+
|
||||
-C|--commit-each::::
|
||||
wait for transaction commit after delet each subvolume
|
||||
|
||||
'list' [options] [-G [\+|-] values] [-C [+|-]value] [--sort=rootid,gen,ogen,path] <path>::
|
||||
List the subvolumes present in the filesystem <path>.
|
||||
+
|
||||
For every subvolume the following information is shown by default. +
|
||||
ID <ID> top level <ID> path <path> +
|
||||
where path is the relative path of the subvolume to the top level subvolume.
|
||||
The subvolume's ID may be used by the subvolume set-default command,
|
||||
or at mount time via the subvolid= option.
|
||||
If `-p` is given, then parent <ID> is added to the output between ID
|
||||
and top level. The parent's ID may be used at mount time via the
|
||||
`subvolrootid=` option.
|
||||
+
|
||||
`Options`
|
||||
+
|
||||
-p::::
|
||||
print parent ID.
|
||||
-a::::
|
||||
print all the subvolumes in the filesystem and distinguish between
|
||||
absolute and relative path with respect to the given <path>.
|
||||
-c::::
|
||||
print the ogeneration of the subvolume, aliases: ogen or origin generation.
|
||||
-g::::
|
||||
print the generation of the subvolume.
|
||||
-o::::
|
||||
print only subvolumes bellow specified <path>.
|
||||
-u::::
|
||||
print the UUID of the subvolume.
|
||||
-q::::
|
||||
print the parent uuid of subvolumes (and snapshots).
|
||||
-t::::
|
||||
print the result as a table.
|
||||
-s::::
|
||||
only snapshot subvolumes in the filesystem will be listed.
|
||||
-r::::
|
||||
only readonly subvolumes in the filesystem will be listed.
|
||||
-G [+|-]value::::
|
||||
list subvolumes in the filesystem that its generation is
|
||||
>=, \<= or = value. \'\+' means >= value, \'-' means \<= value, If there is
|
||||
neither \'+' nor \'-', it means = value.
|
||||
-C [+|-]value::::
|
||||
list subvolumes in the filesystem that its ogeneration is
|
||||
>=, \<= or = value. The usage is the same to '-g' option.
|
||||
--sort=rootid,gen,ogen,path::::
|
||||
list subvolumes in order by specified items.
|
||||
you can add \'\+' or \'-' in front of each items, \'+' means ascending,
|
||||
\'-' means descending. The default is ascending.
|
||||
+
|
||||
for --sort you can combine some items together by \',', just like
|
||||
-sort=+ogen,-gen,path,rootid.
|
||||
|
||||
'snapshot' [-r] <source> <dest>|[<dest>/]<name>::
|
||||
Create a writable/readonly snapshot of the subvolume <source> with the
|
||||
name <name> in the <dest> directory.
|
||||
+
|
||||
If only <dest> is given, the subvolume will be named the basename of <source>.
|
||||
If <source> is not a subvolume, btrfs returns an error.
|
||||
If '-r' is given, the snapshot will be readonly.
|
||||
|
||||
'get-default' <path>::
|
||||
Get the default subvolume of the filesystem <path>.
|
||||
+
|
||||
The output format is similar to 'subvolume list' command.
|
||||
|
||||
'set-default' <id> <path>::
|
||||
Set the subvolume of the filesystem <path> which is mounted as
|
||||
default.
|
||||
+
|
||||
The subvolume is identified by <id>, which is returned by the 'subvolume list'
|
||||
command.
|
||||
|
||||
'find-new' <subvolume> <last_gen>::
|
||||
List the recently modified files in a subvolume, after <last_gen> ID.
|
||||
|
||||
'show' <path>::
|
||||
Show information of a given subvolume in the <path>.
|
||||
|
||||
EXIT STATUS
|
||||
-----------
|
||||
'btrfs subvolume' returns a zero exist status if it succeeds. Non zero is
|
||||
returned in case of failure.
|
||||
|
||||
AVAILABILITY
|
||||
------------
|
||||
'btrfs' is part of btrfs-progs. Btrfs filesystem is currently under heavy
|
||||
development,
|
||||
and not suitable for any uses other than benchmarking and review.
|
||||
Please refer to the btrfs wiki http://btrfs.wiki.kernel.org for
|
||||
further details.
