Yes. I was aware (and surprised) of that. Is it to conclude that migrations are no more supported upstream ? The reason I considered exploring it again (and thus this bug report) because in systemd's container management tool (systemd-nspawn and machinectl), the backend used for storing the container images is btrfs by default. I had great hopes that perhaps the state of btrfs may have improved. But unfortunately, no. :-( First, I quickly ran into: https://github.com/systemd/systemd/issues/1327 And then, Marc Merlin's blog got me conclude it. http://marc.merlins.org/perso/btrfs/post_2014-03-20_Btrfs-Tips_-ACPI-S3 -Sleep-aka-Suspend-And-Btrfs-Scrub.html It is more than a year old, but I have lesser confidence in it. -- Ritesh Raj Sarraf | http://people.debian.org/~rrs Debian - The Universal Operating System
