2 | .SH NAME | |
3 | snap.ro \- fake snapshot handler which does nothing at all | |
4 | .SH SYNOPSIS | |
5 | .B snap.ro | |
6 | .I device | |
7 | .IB key = value | |
8 | \&... | |
9 | .SH DESCRIPTION | |
10 | This is a fake snapshot handler. Rather than produce a snapshot device | |
11 | containing a consistent view of the origin's contents, it does nothing | |
12 | at all. | |
13 | .PP | |
14 | The following options keys are recognized, either with a | |
15 | .RB ` .trivial ' | |
16 | suffix or without. Other keys are reported as errors, unless the key | |
17 | contains a | |
18 | .RB ` . ' | |
19 | character. | |
20 | .TP | |
21 | .BI op= op | |
22 | The | |
23 | .I op | |
24 | must be either | |
25 | .B snap | |
26 | (the default) or | |
27 | .BR unsnap . | |
28 | In the former case, the | |
29 | .I device | |
30 | name is printed to standard output; in neither case does | |
31 | .B snap.trivial | |
32 | actually do anything substantive. | |
33 | .TP | |
34 | .BI tag= tag | |
35 | This option is accepted and ignored. | |
