PFS snapshot not going to assigned directory

[Rohit Menon]

Hi,

I have currently configured a PFS with status as given below.

/Backup3/vms-lxc    PFS #1 {
    sync-beg-tid=0x0000000000000001
    sync-end-tid=0x0000000121e5d400
    shared-uuid=3df3d26e-8552-11e4-8192-4587fc6b58f4
    unique-uuid=3df3d298-8552-11e4-8192-4587fc6b58f4
    label=""
    *snapshots="/Backup4/pfs-snapshots/vms-lxc"*
    prune-min=00:00:00
    operating as a MASTER
}

As can be seen the the snapshot directory is configured to another disk.
However the snapshots are being taken in the pfs itself.

dfly-bkpsrv2# pwd
/Backup3/pfs/@@-1:00001

ls

drwxr-xr-x  1 root  wheel   0 Dec 17 01:13 vms8


As a side note the snapshots are taken via *crontab *instead of using the
default settings.


30 14 * * * hammer snap /Backup3/vms-lxc "rsync"



I can see that there is hammer snapshot where I can specify the behaviour,
however shouldn't the above command take a backup to


*/Backup4/pfs-snapshots/vms-lxc*
