Andrei your contribution to the thread is unwelcome, unhelpful to the original poster, and pointless to the wider world in the light of the facts that full system recovery is not the context of jdd's support request and that full system recovery options are extensively documented.
Andrei comments are very welcome by others, though. Threads have a life of their own, people add more questions to them, and in the end we all learn, including of course the OP.
Sorry, but we have asked many times for that information.
Fine, I wrote the following just for you

Enjoy,
Thanks for that, it confirms some past research I'd done. But I'm still uncertain about your approach. When I last looked at this (see previous email in thread from me) I also saw many other subvolumes: @/var/lib/machines @/var/lib/mailman @/var/lib/mariadb @/var/lib/mysql @/var/lib/named @/var/lib/pgsql @/var/log @/var/spool Is creating the above unnecessary? Are some subvolumes created by software installs? I had thought this might be the case and that I would need to use some commands to discover the list of actual subvolumes? I thought of creating a script that could replicate the structure of an existing root, but number of steps and amount of error checking put me off.
