Enabling Snapshots on Filesystems Using Journaled Soft Updates in 13.2
Contact: Marshall Kirk McKusick <mckusick@freebsd.org>
The ability to make UFS/FFS filesystem snapshots when running
with journaled soft updates, and using them for doing background
dumps on a live filesystem, was merged to releng/13.2
during the first quarter of 2023, and lands in FreeBSD
13.2-RELEASE.
Background dumps are requested by using the -L flag
to
dump(8).
The details of this project were described in the 2022 fourth quarter report.
