I implemented snapshots on my desktop unit. the zfs pool looks like
this:
zfs list
NAME USED AVAIL REFER MOUNTPOINT
zroot 40.4G 851G 96K /zroot
zroot/ROOT 13.1G 851G 96K none
zroot/ROOT/default 13.1G 851G 9.14G /
zroot/tmp 76.4M 851G 2.56M /tmp
zroot/usr 26.9G 851G 96K /usr
zroot/usr/home 26.3G 851G 22.4G /usr/home
zroot/usr/ports 638M 851G 638M /usr/ports
zroot/usr/src 96K 851G 96K /usr/src
zroot/var 131M 851G 96K /var
zroot/var/audit 96K 851G 96K /var/audit
zroot/var/crash 96K 851G 96K /var/crash
zroot/var/log 118M 851G 2.60M /var/log
zroot/var/mail 1.29M 851G 120K /var/mail
zroot/var/tmp 11.3M 851G 5.45M /var/tmp
This is one of the snapshot commands I am issuing from cron:
/usr/local/sbin/zfsnap snapshot -a 14d -s -S -r zroot
But when I look in the snapshot directories I see no data.
This is the result:
ls -a /zroot/.zfs/snapshot/*14d
/zroot/.zfs/snapshot/2017-10-10_11.10.00--14d:
. ..
/zroot/.zfs/snapshot/2017-10-10_12.10.00--14d:
. ..
. . .
/zroot/.zfs/snapshot/2017-10-23_14.10.00--14d:
. ..
This is busy system and I have made many changes to the file system
since starting this on October 10. Why are there no snapshot
references to changed files or where do I find them?
