[Bug 267535] freebsd-update does not create proper deep boot environment backups
Date: Wed, 02 Nov 2022 23:49:19 UTC
https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=267535 --- Comment #1 from cmh <freebsd@juicer.orange-carb.org> --- (In reply to cmh from comment #0) Correction to paragraph 2 of original report (apologies hit send too quickly): In deep boot environments, the action taken by freebsd-update (bectl create) results in >>>>a copy of the ROOT dataset without the subordinate datasets. In other words, freebsd-update is creating a partial backup, and there is no full backup of the boot environment, contrary to expectations.<<<<< This is unhelpful at best, and at worst provides a false sense of security should a restore be necessary. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.
