Tony,

From what I recall having worked with snapshots a while ago, you would want 
export-diff to achieve a differential export.  "export" will always go for a 
full image.

Hi,

Say, source image has snapshot s1, s2 and s3.

I expect "export" behaves the same as "deep cp", when specify a snapshot,
with "--export-format 2", only the specified snapshot and all snapshots
earlier than that will be exported.

What I see is that, no matter which snapshot I specify, "export" with
"--export-format 2" always exports the whole image with all snapshots.
Is this expected?

Could anyone help to clarify?


Thanks!
Tony
