If you mean 'snapper',

Yes, I do. The question was about what filesystems are supported by snapper.

Snapper works on COW file systems. Nothing to do with LVM. LVM has its own snapshot mechanism which works at the LV level regardless of the file system. COW - Copy On Write - is a feature used by SSD files systems and is available also on ZFS, BtrFS, ext3cow, http://faif.objectis.net/download-copy-on-write-based-file-systems ext3cow: https://www.usenix.org/legacy/events/fast04/wips/peterson.pdf http://www.ext3cow.com/ext3cow/Welcome.html ZFS: http://www.ext3cow.com/ext3cow/Welcome.html or in user-space http://user-mode-linux.sourceforge.net/old/UserModeLinux-HOWTO-7.html -- "The easiest thing to do in the world is to neglect the important and give in to the urgent." -- Denis Waitley -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org
