A heated question about Schnapps

Hi

I read about how Schanpps works https://docs.turris.cz/geek/schnapps/schnapps/ and I think it is one of Turris’s best features!

But I haven’t found out what happens and how does it work when I insert the mSATA drive into my Omnia and turn on Plugin Storage and then add a NAS (Samba) or NextCloud plugin for example?
What data is then included in the Schnapps snapshot?

It’s filesystem-level snapshotting. External drives have a separate FS, so I believe they won’t be included. (by default, at least; btrfs can handle FSs that span multiple devices)

It is not clear to me what is happening with the directory /srv, because here https://docs.turris.cz/basics/foris/storage-plugin/storage-plugin/ it says that it is moved to the mSATA disk …
Does this mean that it is “linked” and will be included in the snapshots?

It won’t. From practical perspective I’d suggest to snapshot /srv separately anyway, though that depends on your particular use case. For example, when you roll back your system/config, you probably don’t want your newest photos to disappear.

Does the TOS write any of its system files to /srv?
I wonder if there is a possible bad scenario that Schanpps will take a snapshot without /srv (because it was moved from eMMC to mSATA) and then there will be some conflict after restoring any snapshot (because in /srv on mSATA there will be files unexpected by TOS from another shutter).
If I am thinking correctly :frowning:
