The received subvolumes are stored +into <mount>. + +'btrfs receive' will fail with the following case: + +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. +-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. + +EXIT STATUS +----------- +'btrfs receive' returns a zero exist status if it succeeds. Non zero is +returned in case of failure. + +AVAILABILITY +------------ +'btrfs' is part of btrfs-progs. Btrfs filesystem is currently under heavy +development, +and not suitable for any uses other than benchmarking and review. +Please refer to the btrfs wiki http://btrfs.wiki.kernel.org for +further details. + +SEE ALSO +-------- +`mkfs.btrfs`(8), +`btrfs-send`(8) |
