As a preview of the new technology, you can create btrfs partitions or setup your whole system with btrfs. </para> <para> Note: The btrfs filesystem is in active development, and check and repair functionality ("scrub") has been added just recently. "Scrub" is aimed to verify the data/metadata assuming the tree structures are fine; it can (and should) be run periodically on a mounted filesystem: it runs as a background process during normal operation. </para> <para> Thus we advice to carefully consider, which data to put on the filesystem, and follow the usual suggestions for redundancy and backup. For more information, see <ulink url="http://btrfs.wiki.kernel.org"/>. </para> <para> Btrfs contains many interesting new features, including the ability to take snapshots of your filesystem. Snapshot and Rollback is supported by the tool snapper, and already integrated into the openSUSE package and system management tools such as zypper and YaST. </para> </sect3> -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
