SYNOPSIS
|
|
|
|
|
--------
|
2015-04-19 11:46:28 +00:00
|
|
|
*btrfs receive* [options] <mount>
|
2014-04-02 08:29:22 +00:00
|
|

|
|
|
DESCRIPTION
|
|
|
|
|
-----------
|
|
|
|
|
Receives one or more subvolumes that were previously
|
2014-05-19 15:49:35 +00:00
|
|
|
sent with *btrfs send*. The received subvolumes are stored
|
2014-04-02 08:29:22 +00:00
|
|
|
into <mount>.
|
|
|
|
|
|
2014-05-19 15:49:35 +00:00
|
|
|
*btrfs receive* will fail with the following case:
|
2014-04-02 08:29:22 +00:00
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
1. a receiving subvolume already exists.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
2. a previously received subvolume was changed after it was received.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
3. default subvolume is changed or you don't mount btrfs filesystem with
|
|
|
|
|
fs tree.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
After receiving a subvolume, it is immediately set to read only.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
`Options`
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
-v::
|
|
|
|
|
Enable verbose debug output. Each occurrence of this option increases the
|
|
|
|
|
verbose level more.
|
|
|
|
|
-f <infile>::
|
|
|
|
|
By default, btrfs receive uses stdin to receive the subvolumes.
|
|
|
|
|
Use this option to specify a file to use instead.
|
2015-04-19 11:46:28 +00:00
|
|
|
-C|--chroot::
|
|
|
|
|
Confine the process to <mount> using chroot.
|
2014-04-02 08:29:22 +00:00
|
|
|
-e::
|
|
|
|
|
Terminate after receiving an <end cmd> in the data stream.
|
|
|
|
|
Without this option, the receiver terminates only if an error is recognized
|
|
|
|
|
or on EOF.
|
2014-05-23 19:14:56 +00:00
|
|
|
--max-errors <N>::
|
|
|
|
|
Terminate as soon as N errors happened while processing commands from the send
|
|
|
|
|
stream. Default value is 1. A value of 0 means no limit.
|
2016-03-16 02:01:11 +00:00
|
|
|
-m <mountpoint>::
|
2015-05-27 17:51:29 +00:00
|
|
|
The root mount point of the destination fs.
|
|
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
|
|
By default the mountpoint is searched in /proc/self/mounts.
|
|
|
|
|
If you do not have /proc, eg. in a chroot environment, use this option to tell
|
|
|
|
|
us where this filesystem is mounted.
