[sles-beta] snapper Problem

[urs.frey at post.ch]

Hello Günther

You can manually create snapper configuration
The manual snapper configuration for root does create an entry in /etc/sysconfig/snapper : SNAPPER_CONFIGS="root", and also builds the snapshot root /@ and does also create the file /etc/snapper/configs/root from templates:

v03er9:~ # snapper list
Unknown config.
v03er9:~ # cat /etc/sysconfig/snapper
## Path: System/Snapper

## Type:        string
## Default:     ""
# List of snapper configurations.
SNAPPER_CONFIGS=""
v03er9:~ # ls -lsa /etc/snapper/configs/
total 0
0 drwxr-xr-x 1 root root  0 May  5 19:30 .
0 drwxr-xr-x 1 root root 92 May 16  2014 ..
v03er9:~ # ls -lsa /etc/snapper/config-templates/
total 4
0 drwxr-xr-x 1 root root  14 May 16  2014 .
0 drwxr-xr-x 1 root root  92 May 16  2014 ..

# List of snapper configurations.
SNAPPER_CONFIGS="root"
v03er9:~ # ls -lsa /etc/snapper/configs/

0 drwxr-xr-x 1 root root   8 May 16 10:18 .

Betreff: [sles-beta] snapper Problem

Hello,

can any tell me the new way to activate snapper after the installation?

On some of my Clients snapper is not activated automatic by the installation?

Btrfs File system installed, one of old Bugs I reported.

But I mean before RC2 we have in the btrfs config Window a Icon to activate 
snapper, this is now missing ?

Or is this now on a other Place and I cant find it,

Thanks for a answer.
