With all due respect the OP cited "disk cloning" which is not the same as migrating, or moving for that matter because in compuke a copy or a move is just the creation of something 'similar'. For what it's worth, MY definition of a a backup is "a created resource from which the original can be indistinguishably recovered WITHOUT the original source and without the system that was used to make the backup". dd isn't THAT difficult to use, as for btrsf I know nothing about it.

I had assumed it was unsupported by openSUSE, but upon further inspection, I found that the Japanese SUSE Linux Enterprise Server manual's
In the Storage Management Guide,
Offline migration from existing Ext2, Ext3, and Ext4 file systems.
is mentioned, and ubuntu and Synology provide the offline migration procedures. Reading these, I found that my way is fine.
