Hello all,

I was wondering if there was anyone working on an equivalent of OpenSolaris BE?
Basically,
It automatically creates ZFS snapshots of the whole system each time you do a system upgrade.
Next time you boot,
you'll have the choice of running the new system
or the old one.
Pretty handy to roll back in case anything goes wrong during the system update.

If nothing like it is avaiable for linux,
what would be the necessary steps to achieve something similar?
(even manually)

Best,

Amanda. The learning curve is steep, needs lots of disk storage to run best, and is fully automatic once configured to your system.
