Hello all, [...] P.S.: I personally use btrfs for "/" and "/home", and xfs for the backup storage, ... just in case you were interested.
And I thought btrfs (or any fs with snapshot capability) would be
ideal for backup storage - just create a snapshot before every
incremental backup and use rsync. That get's you incremental
backups "for free" (compared to do dancing with hardlink trees).
[ok, you can also use btrfs remote replication feature but IIRC
that's still considered too "beta"]
Am I missing something or did I interpret "backup storage" in a
wrong way?
