In commit r345845, a portion of documentation for the create subcommand was removed. Specifically, for creating a snapshot of an existing boot environment. bectl even has a test-case for this functionality. Removing the sub-command description was discussed in PR 235850. This patch brings back the second "create" description that was originally in place. Albeit, with a few wording/clarifying changes.

.Sh DESCRIPTION
|
|
The
|
|
.Nm
|
|
command is used to setup and interact with ZFS boot environments, which are
|
|
bootable clones of datasets.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
Boot environments
|
|
allow the system to be upgraded, while preserving the old system environment in
|
|
a separate ZFS dataset.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
The following commands are supported by
|
|
.Nm :
|
|
.Bl -tag -width activate
|
|
.It Xo
|
|
.Cm activate
|
|
.Op Fl t
|
|
.Ar beName
|
|
.Xc
|
|
Activate the given
|
|
.Ar beName
|
|
as the default boot filesystem.
|
|
If the
|
|
.Op Fl t
|
|
flag is given, this takes effect only for the next boot.
|
|
.It Xo
|
|
.Cm create
|
|
.Op Fl r
|
|
.Op Fl e Brq Ar nonActiveBe | Ar beName Ns Cm @ Ns Ar snapshot
|
|
.Ar newBeName
|
|
.Xc
|
|
Create a new boot environment named
|
|
.Ar newBeName .
|
|
.Pp
|
|
If the
|
|
.Fl r
|
|
flag is given, a recursive boot environment will be made.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
If the
|
|
.Fl e
|
|
flag is specified, the new environment will be cloned from the given
|
|
.Ar nonActiveBe
|
|
or
|
|
.Ar beName Ns Cm @ Ns Ar snapshot .
|
|
Otherwise, the new environment will be created from the currently booted environment.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
If
|
|
.Nm
|
|
is creating from another boot environment, a snapshot of that boot environment will be created to clone from.
|
|
.It Xo
|
|
.Cm create
|
|
.Op Fl r
|
|
.Ar beName@snapshot
|
|
.Xc
|
|
Create a snapshot of the boot environment named
|
|
.Ar beName .
|
|
.Pp
|
|
If the
|
|
.Fl r
|
|
flag is given, a recursive snapshot of the boot environment will be created.
|
|
A snapshot is created for each descendant dataset of the boot environment.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
No new boot environment is created with this command.
|
|
.It Xo
|
|
.Cm destroy
|
|
.Op Fl \&Fo
|
|
.Ar beName Ns Op Cm @ Ns Ar snapshot
|
|
.Xc
|
|
Destroy the given
|
|
.Ar beName
|
|
boot environment or
|
|
.Ar beName Ns Cm @ Ns Ar snapshot
|
|
snapshot without confirmation, unlike in
|
|
.Xr beadm 1 .
|
|
Specifying
|
|
.Fl F
|
|
will automatically unmount without confirmation.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
By default,
|
|
.Nm
|
|
will warn that it is not destroying the origin of
|
|
.Ar beName .
|
|
The
|
|
.Fl o
|
|
flag may be specified to destroy the origin as well.
|
|
.It Cm export Ar sourceBe
|
|
Export
|
|
.Ar sourceBe
|
|
to
|
|
.Xr stdout 4 .
|
|
.Xr stdout 4
|
|
must be piped or redirected to a file.
|
|
.It Cm import Ar targetBe
|
|
Import
|
|
.Ar targetBe
|
|
from
|
|
.Xr stdin 4 .

|
|

|
|
.Op Ar utility Op Ar argument ...
|
|
.Xc
|
|
Create a jail of the given boot environment.
|
|
Multiple
|
|
.Fl o
|
|
and
|
|
.Fl u
|
|
arguments may be specified.
|
|
.Fl o
|
|
will set a jail parameter, and
|
|
.Fl u
|
|
will unset a jail parameter.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
By default, jails are created in interactive mode and
|
|
.Pa /bin/sh
|
|
is
|
|
executed within the jail.
|
|
If
|
|
.Ar utility
|
|
is specified, it will be executed instead of
|
|
.Pa /bin/sh .
|
|
The jail will be destroyed and the boot environment unmounted when the command
|
|
finishes executing, unless the
|
|
.Fl U
|
|
argument is specified.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
The
|
|
.Fl b
|
|
argument enables batch mode, thereby disabling interactive mode.
|
|
The
|
|
.Fl U
|
|
argument will be ignored in batch mode.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
The
|
|
.Va name ,
|
|
.Va host.hostname ,
|
|
and
|
|
.Va path
|
|
must be set, the default values are specified below.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
All
|
|
.Ar key Ns Cm = Ns Ar value
|
|
pairs are interpreted as jail parameters as described in
|
|
.Xr jail 8 .
|
|
The following default parameters are provided:
|
|
.Bl -column "allow.mount.devfs" ""
|
|
.It Va allow.mount Ta Cm true
|
|
.It Va allow.mount.devfs Ta Cm true
|
|
.It Va enforce_statfs Ta Cm 1
|
|
.It Va name Ta Set to jail ID.
|
|
.It Va host.hostname Ta Va bootenv
|
|
.It Va path Ta Set to a path in Pa /tmp
|
|
generated by
|
|
.Xr libbe 3 .
|
|
.El
|
|
.Pp
|
|
All default parameters may be overwritten.
|
|
.It Cm list Op Fl aDHs
|
|
Display all boot environments.
|
|
The
|
|
.Em Active
|
|
field indicates whether the boot environment is active now
|
|
.Pq Em \&N ;
|
|
active on reboot
|
|
.Pq Em \&R ;
|
|
or both
|
|
.Pq Em \&NR .
|
|
.Pp
|
|
If
|
|
.Fl a
|
|
is used, display all datasets.
|
|
If
|
|
.Fl D
|
|
is used, display the full space usage for each boot environment, assuming all
|
|
other boot environments were destroyed.
|
|
The
|
|
.Fl H
|
|
option is used for scripting.
|
|
It does not print headers and separate fields by a single tab instead of
|
|
arbitrary white space.
|
|
If
|
|
.Fl s
|
|
is used, display all snapshots as well.
|
|
.It Cm mount Ar beName Op Ar mountpoint
|
|
Temporarily mount the boot environment.
|
|
Mount at the specified
|
|
.Ar mountpoint

|
|
Rename the given
