NAME
yum-fs-snapshot
SYNOPSIS
The yum-fs-snapshot package
DESCRIPTION
yum-fs-snapshot(1) is a Yum plugin for taking snapshots of your
filesystems before running a yum transaction. By default it will
take a snapshot of any filesystem that can be snapshotted, which
currently is limited to BTRFS filesystems. However, all
filesystems built on LVM logical volumes may be snapshotted at
the block level using LVM snapshots. LVM snapshot support is
provided for the purpose of system rollback. As such LVM
snapshots will only be created if the kernel supports the
"snapshot-merge" DM target.
FILES
yum-fs-snapshot uses a configuration file for its specific
actions: /etc/yum/pluginconf.d/fs-snapshot.conf
