Hi all,
I have a question on how CoW/reflink works when used on busy files, as
vm image files, databases, ecc.
In short: can reflink-copy be used to create a crash-consistent snapshot
of, say, a busy vm disk file? Or the db/vm/whatever should be quiesced
before taking the copy (ie: similarly to how lvm call fsfreeze during
the snapshot)?
Thanks.
