Dear yast-developers, sorry for using this DL, but I don't know where to address my issue correctly. I've recently started to use snapper to snapshot a subvolume and set the TIMELINE config to: # cleanup hourly snapshots after some time TIMELINE_CLEANUP="yes" # limits for timeline cleanup TIMELINE_MIN_AGE="1800" TIMELINE_LIMIT_HOURLY="2" // <<<<<< should keep two hourly's TIMELINE_LIMIT_DAILY="20" TIMELINE_LIMIT_MONTHLY="12" TIMELINE_LIMIT_YEARLY="0" But I now see this: snapper -c dev list Type | # | Pre # | Date | User | Cleanup | Description | Userdata -------+----+-------+----------------------------------+------+----------+-------------+--------- single | 0 | | | root | | current | single | 21 | | Mon 26 May 2014 12:01:02 AM CEST | root | timeline | timeline | single | 45 | | Tue 27 May 2014 12:01:02 AM CEST | root | timeline | timeline | single | 69 | | Wed 28 May 2014 12:01:02 AM CEST | root | timeline | timeline | single | 71 | | Wed 28 May 2014 02:01:02 AM CEST | root | timeline | timeline | single | 72 | | Wed 28 May 2014 03:01:03 AM CEST | root | timeline | timeline | single | 73 | | Wed 28 May 2014 04:01:02 AM CEST | root | timeline | timeline | single | 74 | | Wed 28 May 2014 05:01:01 AM CEST | root | timeline | timeline | single | 75 | | Wed 28 May 2014 06:01:02 AM CEST | root | timeline | timeline | single | 76 | | Wed 28 May 2014 07:01:02 AM CEST | root | timeline | timeline | single | 77 | | Wed 28 May 2014 08:01:02 AM CEST | root | timeline | timeline | single | 78 | | Wed 28 May 2014 09:01:02 AM CEST | root | timeline | timeline | single | 79 | | Wed 28 May 2014 10:01:02 AM CEST | root | timeline | timeline | single | 80 | | Wed 28 May 2014 11:01:02 AM CEST | root | timeline | timeline | 21 and 45 seems to be DAYLIES. But 69-80 are 11 snapshots, with 70 missing. So maybe 69 is a daily as well. (12 AM is really confusing me. BTW, is there a way to change the timeformat?) But I'm just wondering what is going on here with 71-80? This is certainly more than "2" hourlys. I've used rsnapshot before and configured cron to run two hourly's a day. I though with TIMELINE_LIMIT_HOURLY=2 would also only keep two snapshots. Also it would be nice if the description could be updated to "timeline - daily" to indicate it is kept because of some rule.
